Full stop that should not be a criminal offense. Jailing that man for that sentence does not serve justice.

Why not?
It sounds like you need to spend some time doing some soul searching.

What do you think is served by that sentence of jail time? Disregarding that I think the law in question is outrageous - why is jail time an appropriate punishment? Is it fitting to imprison some one on the dubious claim that they impacted your profits? It does not seem to be a fitting or appropriate punishment, it seems to be ghoulish overkill to scare people from fucking with the money.

Why not life in prison?
