Irish drug smugglers nabbed in Spain - sentenced to 30 years in prison

According to the headline above, this man was "sentenced to 30 years in prison". Gee, amazing. Considering he was only arrested last week. And there has been no trial yet, and there won't be for months. Another journalistic faux pas by IC?

Hmmm! Another entreprenurially gifted individual filling a niche market for potent commodity fetish - bites the dust. When will these moral reprobates ever learn that they should stick to conveying only legalised intoxicants like alcohol, caffeine, and nicotine from which the European Union (EU)/EuroFeds (EFs) derive considerable revenue with which to fund public expenditure like Health and Policing.

wish he'd been in states to get the chair.

Having seen "Veronica Guerin", been on a few jury trials for drug smuggling, watching "one too many" criminal investigation programs on cable, and now being about to go to vacation in Spain, I was especially interested in the article. Mankind never stops thinking they can get something for nothing. Well, they can't.
