Jump To Comment: 1I wouldn't want to spend all that time in prison either and I'd probably sell my gran to get out, but:
Wolf has turned over the evidence, pretty much proving that event the most "friendly" media is bad media if you're going to have a brush with the law.
Hopefully someone else isn't going to be caught on that video and sent away for for 10 to life as a result.
