"you sir are guilty of jaywalking, but because the arresting office has alluded to the fact that you might be a pedophile, I'm going to give you 15 years".. right.
Well, 15 years isn't within the allowable punishments for jaywalking so that's a specious argument. However if you think Capone got all that time in jail for simple tax evasion you're nuts. Sometimes people of bad character are charged with what the prosecution can prove beyond a reasonable doubt but everyone knows the score and so they'll get the top end of the scale for what could be proven. That's not necessarily against justice even if it isn't within the letter of the law.
