“It appears the prison sentence was excessive.”
The guy did lots of bad stuff.
Simply because he was a barracuda (crooked head of a medium size company)instead of a great white shark (crooked head of a really big company), doesn’t merit a sentence reduction.
Eight years in federal prison for unlawfully acquiring millions of dollars is not enough.
It took me four years to get through college. If I could have gotten millions for another four years at college, I would have.
There are people making $10/hour that truly hate their jobs. They could work their entire lives in misery and not get even $1 million.
Trump let off the scumbag off too easily.
Punishment for theft at this level should be severe but there are murderers serving less time.
We may not know everything there is to know about this case but I do trust the President to make good informed decisions. That being said, it does have the outward appearances of a slap on the wrist.
