Schrenker Trial
Prosecution: This man is accused of defrauding investors. He surrounded himself with shiny things that he could not afford. Posted cheesy videos of himself on the internet, indicating a goofy sense of self-importance. Was in the Air Force. Poor execution of planning. A man who lives in a $4 million dollar house should be able to afford enough fuel to get the plane into the Caribbean. Even an Air Force pilot should be able to plan this out.
Defense: In spite of choice of service branch, he served in the special forces. Landed a hot wife. And what a plan! Airplane crashes, motorcycles, motel rooms, cryptic emails. Tried and failed at business, but at least he worked hard and tried, which is better than most people.

Verdict: Guilty. He has three kids and a public suicide attempt, even if faked, is going to scar them for the rest of their lives. This will affect his family for probably two generations. The honorable thing to do would have been to sit the family down and be honest with them. Go bankrupt and adopt an affordable lifestyle. If she can’t handle that, enjoy life as an alpha male bachelor.
