How is that even possible? Isn't there a maximum sentence for this sort of crime? the shittiest part of all this is that no one is going to rally support for this guy. He's gonna be stuck in jail for life... for downloading pictures. What a fucking joke. | ||

Casey Anthony goes free for killing a child, her own at that. GG America led by the stupidest people on the planet. Good thing we have our overpowering military force or we wouldn't have much of anything... | ||

(disgusting) + Show Spoiler + He'd have been better off, legally, brutally beating and raping a child. Another sick guy bites the dust. Nice one US "justice" system. | ||

Yep, too afraid of the Social Stigma that would be placed upon them, although clearly alot of people on this forum are against this sentence, nobody would support a rally for a reduced sentence in public, that's what I hate about the human race, we're too afraid of what people will think. | ||

and how the fuck can a rational thinking person make/interpret a law like this...5 CP pics = 5 years, 20 pics = 20 years because 15 pics absolutely justify extra 15 years of prison. this guy is just a sick man and should get psychological help, but it seems like US justice system just puts everyone in jail no matter what (can we make a vote or something? :D) | ||

You're probably thinking of life with parole, but this sentence was of life without parole.Thanks! I'll update the OP with your link. actually, us germans really call 25 years (max) a 'liftetime sentence'  | ||

"No cruel and unusual punishment." This is a cruel punishment for the crime. | ||

EDIT: The guy should be punished but 26 years is too extreme in my opinion, just to clarify and make sure I'm not misunderstood. | ||

Anyway, while child porn is clearly fucked up, the crime isn't exactly equivalent to murder/rape/yadda yadda. Wouldn't be surprised if the guy appeals this. | ||

Aside from the fact that that seems like a strange use of terminology,actually, us germans really call 25 years (max) a 'liftetime sentence' Everyone's go-to source for instant education on matters that they know nothing about writes: The German Constitutional Court has found life imprisonment without the possibility of parole to be antithetical to human dignity, the most fundamental concept of the present German constitution. That ruling does not mean that every convict has to be released, but that every convict must have a realistic chance for eventual release, provided that they are not considered dangerous any more.... The record time served is held by Heinrich Pommerenke, a convicted mass murderer and rapist who was imprisoned for 49 years (1959 until his death in late 2008). | ||
