Of course what he did was wrong but I did think his sentence was excessive.

We paid 20 million dollars to settle lawsuits for rapist congressmen and women who should actually be in prison for their actions.

This sentence should have been 5 years out in 3

If you hand out manslaughter sentences and the guy is out in five years....then all lesser crimes ought to reflect lesser years as well.

I agree with you. The number of years was excessive. I often think the people who do not seem to be likeable get heavier sentences for crimes that are not threatening to the general public, and other offenders get lighter sentences.

Exactly. And that was the injustice of this.

I absolutely hate that there are two tracks of justice in this country. Blago became a political prisoner, while Comey, Learner, Brennan, Clapper, the Clintons, and many others never have any fear of paying for the very real multiple crimes they have committed.

Agreed. I thought it was excessive at the time. I would have given him 2 years, a fine and community service.
