I don't see why only the lawyer should go to jail. The whole family are a bunch of greedy slimeballs whose sense of entitlement made them think they could do whatever they wanted, with no consequences.
The Ministry of Defence has dismissed claims by an Afghan warlord that Prince Harry kills insurgents while "drunk" as simply absurd. Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, a former Afghan prime minister, told the Daily Telegraph that Prince Harry, an Apache attack helicopter pilot, was intoxicated as he killed "innocent Afghans".
