Good background there on the subject at hand.
Curious question -- what if, instead of negotiating an amnesty, she had decided to simply sail away?
Points of arrival:
West coast of N. America in 1811 (but why?)
Indonesia
West Indies
South Africa (why go so far??)
Or, for real fun, find a reason why she would have shown up on the European Atlantic Coast circa 1812 with over 500 highly experienced pirate ships?
