Do you take the trial by jury or judge?

Votes not yet accepted?
If I were facing that many years I would simply flee to a country that doesn't have extradition agreements with the USA.

people always say they would flee but like seriously how do you trek into Canada you'd have to walk through the bear ridden forest or something and there could be rivers.. I know you couldn't just go through the border or the us border patrol would find your warrant and arrest you.. anyone know how to smuggle yourself into canada

Canada has extradition agreements with the United States, Canada is a no go. Think something like Chile instead.
I mean I'd take the jury, but I feel like Emails gonna come and tell us that it's the foolish choice.

Why the hell would you go to Canada, they have an extradition treaty with the USA and would simply find you and bring you back.
Most people aren't facing 100+ years of prison time. It wouldn't be worth it to go through the ordeal of fleeing to another country if you are only looking at 5 years prison time.

This goddamn poll default option has never worked in 15 years. What a bunch of bullshit.

Does it say you are a wanted fugitive? No, it just says that you are facing 100+ years for crimes. You could have charges pending but the judge might not have confiscated your passport, if that's the case then you can leave and get on a plane to go anywhere easily. You become a wanted fugitive long after you're gone already and there's no chance of capturing you.

Trial by jury all the way.
If the judge tends to be lighter on crime (and given that my crime is non-violent but for some reason am facing 100+ years) I might opt for trial by judge.

Yeah, Colombia or Venezuela seems like a good choice.

Again, why would you go to either of those countries if you are facing 100+ years? Both those countries have extradition treaties with the USA.
Jesus I hope neither of you become lifetime criminals, you'd be terrible at it and wind up back in prison in no time.

That's where I would go too. It's the closest in proximity to the USA so family and friends can still come out and visit you, and it's also cheap to live so a few thousand dollars could stretch to at least a year while you figure out things in terms of housing and job prospects. Not only that, but medicine is also really good in Cuba.
Spanish is also the most similar to English, and it'd be a lot easier for an American to learn Spanish than it would be to learn Vietnamese or Arabic or Swahili.
Who knows though, politics between the USA and Cuba are changing, and the embargo might be lifted. Once that happens, there will probably also be an extradition treaty in place.

Because.... Russia is so peaceful? 
I would hate to live there, not to mention Slavic languages are the most difficult languages to master.
