#1 a suspect would likely have no access to medical treatment, sanitary facilities or privacy in a Kenyan jail.

I feel for this poor traumatized soul missing the wonderfully hygienic and restful conditions of his tranquil native land. NOT!

#2 Those conditions are available at Gitmo, and there are openings!

#4 Let's have Spain indict those Germans responsible for this.

#5 The German navy patrolling the Gulf of Aden captured the plaintiff

"Plaintiff" is what they are being called now? Jerk is lucky he didn't get one in the head.

#6 Just one more indication that the lawyers have screwed up EVERYTHING. From now on, if a pirate is captured, he gets one in the brain and dumped into the ocean. Don't even worry about identifying him, just make sure he's not able to pursue his "career" any longer.

The lawyer in this case needs to have some severe trauma involving the kneecaps.

#7 I don't blame the lawyer, I blame the "Human Rights Activist" movement for convincing large numbers of touchy-feeley dickweeds that everyone who commits a crime must be coddled in the name of humanity.

#8 So if the lawyer collects 10k EU, how much does the pirate get?

#9 OP, why waste a bullet? If you're 350 miles out to sea, just dump him overboard. Tie him to some heavy garbage so he sinks, if you don't want him washing up on some shore.

#10 Personally, I'm for the.... one round of bullet method.

#11 Serious question, just HOW are the lawyers getting paid?

#13 Rambler, I believe that Somalia has some of the most shark infested waters on the planet. The garbage is unnecessary. Just toss in some tuna or leftover chum....that should do it.
