I think reason will win the day; 50 seems a bit much to me to, but in the end the law is the law and it is so frequently subverted these days.
If you’ve seen pics of this kid, you’ll note that he would not last more than 2 years anyway.
It’s unfortunate, but he was probably under undo influence of his father.
I have a feeling you’re right.
This kid will probably get some time while his father has no worries.
