The notorious Barefoot Bandit was caught
boasting about his wild crime spree and hurling insults at police and
prosecutors, which could hurt the young thief during his sentencing in
federal court Friday. In jailhouse phone calls and emails that were
monitored by authorities, 20-year-old Colton Harris-Moore called the
police "swine" and "asses" and referred to the San Juan County
prosecutor as a "complete fool," while bragging about his illegal
exploits, reports the
Seattle Times.
Federal
prosecutors say the exposed statements show Harris-Moore's lack of
remorse, but they are sticking to a plea agreement of asking the judge
for a 6 1/2-year sentence. (He boasted about getting that relatively
light punishment, too.) "The things I have done as far as flying and
airplanes goes, is amazing," the Barefoot Bandit wrote in one email.
"Nobody on this planet have done what I have, except for the Wright
brothers."
