I do not recall a single person in this thread saying that the 7 year term was fair. What I do recall is derf saying there may be more to the story (there is BTW, multiple convictions for one).
You are arguing this from an emotional point of view, I just gave the legal reasoning for what took place.
Yes, people commit worse crimes and suffer lesser consequences. That sucks.

Oh, no, not insulting at all, I just didn't get what you were referencing. Certainly absurd prison sentences are an issue to me, obviously. As they should be for anyone who desires to live in a "free" nation or society.
I read all the legal reasoning already. The legal reasoning doesn't make it any more right to put the man in a cage. I'm thinking instead of going, "there might be more to the story" we should be pissed off, write a letter to someone and wait for the authorities in this case to either beg our forgiveness or justify their actions.
