- manmal 9y agoI would, irrationally, feel bad about sending someone to prison for 20y just because they stole some cash from me.
- fnj 9y agoThat's odd. I certainly wouldn't [feel bad, that is].
- pklausler 9y agoAre you assuming that they've never defrauded anybody else before and will never do it again?
- Veratyr 9y agoIf it was just myself, I'd agree with you but I seriously doubt someone who knows Amazon's procedures this well did it only once. It's not unreasonable to assume this person is running scams like this full time. If they're running scams full time and making enough to earn enough money to live by, they're stealing a full living worth of money from law-abiding citizens, a full life someone else should have. That's why I wouldn't have a problem with someone like this getting 20y. But the 20y is also a maximum and it's unlikely they'd be sentenced that harshly.
- toast0 9y agoI don't know the sentencing rules, but this is an up to, not a minimum. This particular crime showed a lot of premeditation, and it might not be the only instance. I wouldn't feel bad about referring it to the justice system.
