Well, well--here's something you don't see every day:

A former Bosnian Croat special forces soldier pleaded guilty Tuesday to war crimes at the Yugoslav tribunal as part of a deal with prosecutors.
"I'm guilty, and I honestly regret it," Miroslav Bralo told the court as eight separate counts were read aloud by the judge. Prosecutors agreed to reduce the number of counts in his indictment from an initial 21, but added additional charges of persecution and unlawful confinement of prisoners.
Bralo, 37, confessed to rape, torture, murder and using prisoners as human shields to protect Bosnian Croat soldiers from sniper fire...The arrangement enables the court to skip the usually lengthy trial stage and go directly to sentencing. Bralo could face a maximum life sentence under the court's guidelines but is unlikely to do so because he confessed guilt and expressed remorse.
How lucky for him....

Then again,
After a yearlong trial, a special court in Belgrade on Monday found Milorad Lukovic, one of Milosevic's senior paramilitary commanders, and Rade Markovic, a former head of Serbia's secret service, guilty of planning and carrying out the August 2000 assassination, along with five others...Human rights activists and former opponents of Milosevic's autocratic rule said that the trial had exposed to the Serbian public, in unparalleled detail, the ruthlessness with which the former Yugoslav strongman had sought to remain in power.
Somehow, I wonder if they didn't already know that....

Wait! What's it really all about, though? MONEY.
