Unfortunately, given the state of judicial systems world-wide, he'll probably be found guilty of negligent manslaughter and sentenced to 30 days WITHOUT TELEVISION, but released for time served. He will write a book, sign on for a movie and retire a rich man.
It would take a skilled butcher a half hour to do the work he did. He probably took two hours. That's inconsistent with "panic" or innocent motives. His lies since he was plucked out of the water double the probability of cold-blooded murder, not an accident. Watch his demeanor in the first interview: controlled, calm, calculating, assured. Murderer of the slimiest variety, I'm afraid.
Could you work for a couple of grisly hours hacking a body to pieces and with complete calm assurance say what he said? I couldn't do the deed, much less cover up for it in such a cold-blooded manner. He doesn't deserve to live, but he will.
