Michele 1 #1 March 9, 2004 Richard Reid, aka "The Shoe Bomber", received his sentence from U.S. District Court Judge William Young on January 30. Sorry if this is a repost, but I don't recall it being posted.

ACMESkydiver 0 #3 March 9, 2004 Is that verified, Michele? Not questioning you, just wonder the source, y'know... I only say because that was DAMN cool and if it was a court record, I just couldn't imagine that a speech that rivoting just 'came out' of a judge's mouth. -However, I fortunately have never been in an actual court (knocking on wood) outside a traffic court... So I don't know if this speech was prepared prior to delivering it? Guess it would have to be... Yeah, the points you highlighted about the meager monetary compensation was pretty lame, but the rest of the sentence and that judge's speech is just outstanding...IMHO. Thanks for sharin' that, if it was posted before, I hadn't seen it...~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

Michele 1 #7 March 9, 2004 Hi, Jaye It is the HTML format of this PDF file: http://www.nacic.gov/news/2003/april/SENTENCING_OF_RICHARD_REID.pdf. Granted, I don't have a clue about who nacic.gov is, though. From what I understand, it is real, it is part of the court's record, and the Judge did say it. Also from what I understand, they do prepare remarks, rather than being off the cuff. The highlight was accidental - they were the terms I used in the search... As for it being a report, I came across it elsewhere, had not seen it before, here or elsewhere, and thought it would be interesting to post. (Yea, 'twardo, the marathon day was unusually hot - hit upwards of 95 today....what happened to spring???)
