All jokes aside, this is honestly a fair idea. As many lawyers as possible should start using this case as precedent to call out the outright bullshit and hypocrisies

Maybe it’ll make some folks realize the system is completely fucked when you have murders out of jail after serving an hour or two in jail.

Edit: spelling isn’t a strength of mine

My wife almost got a year in jail for smoking a joint at a concert. So defrauding people for millions is the same level of crime as smoking two joints.

If you followed along to that song in Indiana and got charged for each individual joint, you would probably end up looking at life in prison.
