I dunno, I might be wrong. But 25 years is a really long time to spend in jail. I'm not sure what is achieved by it. To be clear, in both cases I think some number of years is definitely justified.

@manton Ill go with that if you’ll also agree that sentencing for crimes affecting poor people is also too punitive.

@amerpie Yes, and that is a much bigger actual problem.

I dunno. I feel like it's the only way to try to stop all the grifting and outright theft of people's money. What's 5 years in prison if you can somehow pass 10 million dollars to friends and family?

@iChris For sure, 5 years feels too short. I don't know what the right sentence is, just not convinced about 25 years.

I disagree. His actions were intentional and did enormous damage people. And I believe he is remorseless and will do it again. After all, he is one of the smartest guys around...just ask him.

@robj Fair enough. Perhaps the "remorseless" is part of it.
