i'm not a lawyer but i was reading the comments on the story on MSN. somebody stated that life in prison for a first time felon in florida means they can get out after serving 15 years. i realy hope this is not right. that means riviera would be out by the age of 31.

That may or may not be true but if you get a life in prison without the possibility of parole then I do believe that means you are in prison for the rest of your life. Maybe if he got 15 to life he'd be eligible after serving 15 years.
