I *totally* agree.. but regardless of how much of an asshole he's been in the past, isn't four years in prison a little much? I mean, the guy hasn't even had a formal *trial* yet.. sure.. lock him up for as many years as you want, but no one deserves to not know what their fate is.. he's been literally rotting in a jail cell (sometimes in solitary confinement).. what's worse, even if he gets out of prison before retirement age, one of the conditions of his release (at the moment) is that he is not allowed to interact with computers *at all*. how realistic is that?
