Yea street justice would be what those guys deserve, but I for one would rather give them a bit of croc justice if you know what I mean and im sure a nice nize nile or salty would be more than willing once it warms up a bit.
lol thats a bit to severe but they arent going to do any jail time not for a reptile.
I myself would love to see them lose their truck since it was used for a crime and do real jail time sadly I highly doubt either will happen.
They ought to do the same to these sick freaks.
I hope they rot in jail but sadly they wont do a single day of jail time considering its a reptile and a croc .
Personally, I think they will do some time and pay a large fine.
1) It's an endangered species which is a felony.
2) They killed it in such a cruel and cowardly fashion
3) It's all been very public
I think they only thing that would keep them out of jail is if they've been model citizens and my *guess* is they haven't

There is a video on CNN.com. I wish I could get my hands on those people and drag them behind my truck for a while.
