This is the same judge who sentenced a guy to 40 years for selling meth, Judge Smails style, “because I felt I owed it to him” Not really but it was some other bullshit like “this is wrong but not immoral, if it were immora I’d have to resign”

One old, well off white guy saw himself in another old, well off white guy. Hmm, mercy is required here.

It’s good to know that deep down, all the incredible cynicism in this thread really does conceal a strong moral center. We can still be unhappy and surprised by something.

It’s funny to me because up here a four year sentence would be unusually harsh for someone like Mannafort. I think it’s a consequence of the insanely harsh system you have overall that it seems soft. Armed robbery will get you three years where I live and that doesn’t bother me.

Proportionality is the issue. Imagine someone getting three years for armed robbery and then someone that was involved in decades of crimes and immoral acts, who continued to commit crimes and flaunts his disregard for the law while on bail and in prison, gets like 3 months. And may be out in 1.5 months with good behavior.

It serves none of the purposes of criminal prosecution. Hey immoral garbage person: you can live a life of insane riches, be completely inconsiderate of anyone and everyone around you, literally help dictators commit atrocities and torture and kill people for decades, deny it all and make every effort to illegally sabotage your trial—and if you still, against all odds, get convicted of numerous felonies, your only penalty will be 3.5 years in prison (most likely in protective adseg with a laptop and a phone) TOUGH DECISION

Just a heads up, the audio in 1 is wonkier than I'd like but it was my first one ever. The best ones are probably 2, 3, 5, 8 and 10. And if anyone wants to try co-commentating, let me know. Because I have trouble getting people to do it twice because the game sucks.

Lol jk. What did you expect? That first year after graduation is a long one. I cut the number of law classmates I stayed in touch with in half.
