It is just me, or does a 35 year old prison term sound CRAZY? Never mind the proposed monetary fine... the punishment just doesn't seem to fit the crime. It's outrageous.
To put things into perspective...
- Swartz, 24, faces 35 years in prison and a $1 million fine under the indictment.
- Anders Breivik killed at least 76 people, and the maximum punishment under Norwegian law is 21 years (albeit with the option to extend it for 5 years each after that).
Who committed the bigger and more serious crime here??
