[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He was a kid. He served time. Insisting he pay restitution because he made money from Hollywood? That seems a little nuts, tbh. [/quote]
I agree. He was a dumb 16 year old. He made some severe stupid mistakes. Shall he kill himself and never be happy?
He seems like a great guy.[/quote]

No, he was not.

He was tried as an ADULT.  His chronological age at the time of the offense is therefore meaningless.  Stop trying to revise history.

Furthermore, there are plenty of other things he is allowed to do.  I do not think he deserves preferential legal treatment while most offenders in similar situations are stuck with the consequences of their actions. [/quote]

Not PPs.  I don't get your point.  He committed a crime at 16 or 17, was tried as an adult, and served time for it.  Did his age affect his time served?  Possibly.  It wasn't his fortune that bought him a shorter time served, because he wasn't famous at that time.

Do I think he should be pardoned?  I don't know, but now seems to be the right time to ask (with the governor on his way out).  I do think he paid his debt to society, and he has been clean for over 20 years.  I also don't think he has to pay restitution to victims, although that might help to get a pardon.  [/quote]

First pardon all people who, at under 18, were tried as adults and who did time served and who had no subsequent violations and who created no permanent physical damage to any person in their feloney. Then consider Marky Mark, the UTrau Man. [/quote]
