>If you get sentenced for a conviction, your good deeds will affect the decision. Definitely a valid point, but I don't feel comfortable applying the same idea to inanimate entities like corporations. >Sometimes people get off entirely based on who they are (e.g. athletes, execs, etc). On a personal level, I have never agreed with this.
