Hijacker's life changed - Page 3

We've all heard the stories ... a violent youth, years on the lamb, a new life as a model citizen ... knock, knock, knock ... you're under arrest.

Recently, in the United States, there was the case of Kathleen Soliah now calling herself Sara Jane Olson, a one-time SLA revolutionary turned minivan-driving soccer mom.

Now, in Canada, we have the trial of hijacker, Patrick Dolan Critton, who was convicted in the 1971 hijacking of an Air Canada jet, and turned his life around in the more than 30 years since the incident, becoming a model parent, a respected social worker, teacher and community activist.

He's now facing a sentencing hearing. What do you think his sentence should be, based upon this incredible story?
