Legally it was "attempted piracy", NOT piracy.
Reader comment on item: Pirate Fail Leads to Dismissal of Charges

unfortunately, they were charged with PIRACY, and not ATTEMPTED piracy, which are two different things --- had they been charged on the "attempted" cause, it is highly doubtful the judge would have dismissed, because that is precisely what they did, but did NOT fullfill the legal description of PIRACY !

bad mistake by prosecution actually !
