  1. he would have said, "you will sentence me to 10 years in prison"
    Reason:
    if this was true, then he would be sentenced to 5 years in prison. however, that is in contradiction with the 10 he had stated, which would make it false.
    however, if the statement is false, he would be sentenced for 10 years, and if this happens, then the man was true.
    So, there is no way for it to end, so the judge has no choice but to let him go... ;)
