much as, you know, he s a fugitive from justice. as a result of that, he could delay the proceeding. but at the end of the day, i see him back in the united states, facing the violation of probation and the consequence of all the circumstances that comes along with it. this is a bump on the road but you know what, he ll be back. there s so much more ahead. it s really a fascinating and heartbreaking story to watch. joey, danny, thank you guys so much. happy new year to you as well. thank you, brianna, all the best. all the best to you as well. after the break, we re going to be talking about bill cosby. this is his biggest legal battle yet but it might not be his last. i ll be speaking with a lawyer for the young woman whose case might lead to more criminal charges. we live in a pick and choose world.
so i think ultimately what the authorities are looking to do in texas, brianna, is to move his probation to adult court so that in the future should he violate he will be subjected to a much harsher punishment. the mother, based upon her intentionally harboring and really getting him out of the country and working to evade capture, she faces the harsher punishment at the moment. so is that why, danny, you think that maybe ethan isn t necessarily he s fighting to stay in mexico. why is that? just like we heard joey say, it could be a matter of four months in jail. we ve been racking our brains with that very question. but it really begs the bigger question, why go to mexico in the first place. but insofar as he is currently challenging his return to the states, his deportation back to the states, what is the basis. i mean what are the grounds that he can challenge his deportation? he s not lawfully in mexico.
