[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Setting aside whether he would have gotten harsher punishment if different race, it does seem that he got off very easily. I don't know what he could potentially have faced, I just mean that his crimes were so profoundly creepy and disruptive it surprises me he essentially is simply compensating them for their out of pocket expenses.

Eh, I think this is probably a pretty par for the course punishment.  Folks are always shocked at the light (sometimes nonexistent) sentences for well publicized crimes, not realizing the sentence received is usually very normal.  That's how you end up with people tortured for years by their neighbors, people with dozens of DUIs, repeat sex offenders, etc.  Sentencing for a lot of crimes really isn't all that harsh.  [/quote]

I agree with this. The point of making a deal and letting non-violent, otherwise productive citizens off with light sentences is to not clog up with courts and jails with these guys. [/quote]
