'Busy', as he is affectionately called by his fans worldwide, was greeted at the Norman Manley International Airport on May 21 by law-enforcement agents from the US, the United Kingdom, and Jamaica. As he stepped off the plane, the extradition warrant was executed on him. Busy could face between 12 to 18 months in prison and a fine of $3,000 to $30,000 under sentencing guideline recommendations.
His attorney, Bill Mauzy, told The Associated Press he'd ask for a sentence of time served. Assistant US Attorney Andrew Dunne declined to say how much time prosecutors would seek. A sentencing date has not been set.
