Yeah he violated the law and the few months offered in the plea deal isn't that long but the fact that you can be blackmailed/threatened into basically being forced to take them and giving up your rights in court or get fucked otherwise is a travesty of the American justice system. If the proper fitting punishment for his crime was 4 months or 6 months or what have you like that should be the kind of punishment that's on the table and expected during a fair trial. Not something that's achieved outside of court trough deals. Looking from the outside in from a western European country it's hard to see why this is such ingrained concept in the US.
