helo guys,
well $180,000 bail is pretty high for los angeles county. they must have a lot on hide, and we are not talking personal use. typically for personal use, one can get on prop 36. but in this case it looks like something more serious. many of you talk of a court guiltytrial. hide would be a fool to go to trial. rather, he should plead guilty, and do as little time as possible, unfortunately with a felony for life.
this is what will happen: he will plead guilty, the district attorney will throw out most charges, but will stick him with one or two felonies. he will do county or state time, and after he does his time, he will be sent back to his homeland. though once his sentence is complete here in the u.s.,he will wait for up to 6 months to be finally shipped to japan, a free man, but with a ruined career.
