- ponsin 7y agoIs 5 years not a lot? Imagine everything that you accomplished in the past 5 years didn't happen and that you are now an ex-con. I doubt that you would say that that was not a low punishment. Now you could ask, why do other criminals receive such hight sentences? That would be a better question. But 5 years for robbery (I assume he forfeited all of the money he took) sounds harsh but fair
