Apparently, Black won't be eligible for early release and other programs while he sits in an American prison - because he's not an American citizen. (apparently minimum security prison is also out of the question...)
Then, when his sentence is up (whatever it turns out to be), he will be promptly shipped to an Immigration Detention Center to await deportation out of the country.
Gosh, you mean a convicted felon might have to serve his term and then be deported out of country? While I disagree with a great many things in the way the American justice system has gone in recent years, Mr. Black is merely being forced to lie in a bed of his own making.
A progressive voice shining light into the darkness of regressive politics. Pretty much anything will be fair game, and little will be held sacred.
