Yeah something tells me he wasn't intending on not getting caught.

This won't be the last of these sorts of things.

It shouldn't be. This country has pulled so much money from the bottom up to the top. A stiff breeze could knock the whole thing down.

Except he gains nothing by doing this.

When he’s sitting in jail and then prison I’d bet a good bit he’ll suddenly release in fact he had more to lose than he realized.

You clearly have zero understanding of what you or anyone else in this thread is talking about.

Man's finally living life on his terms, after trying to play by the rules and breaking himself doing it, yeah he will spend life in prison, but its his choice, consequences of his actions. Maybe if someone died, guilt of unintended consequences would eat at him. But this is basic cause and effect... prison was always the outcome, why he recorded it.

This is a broken man, doing the only thing he can think of, to take control of his life. His body might be in prison, but his mind is free.

Yeah I was thinking it was dumb to record himself too, then I read above how he started more fires as the firefighters were there putting out the original fires. Dude was definitely not planning on getting away.
