- duxup 2y agoI don’t know what that’s supposed to mean regarding the topic.
- westurner 2y ago> House arrest would make the math on “should I try fraud” lean heavily towards fraud I think. You argue that house arrest is an insufficient deterrent for the level of fraud committed by defendant A. Is the sentencing for defendant A consistent with the US Sentencing Guidelines, and consistent with other defendants convicted of fraud? > Maybe even more so if you’ve got a nice house. Defendant B apparently isn't even on house arrest, and apparently sent someone else to their civil rape deposition obstructively and fraudulently.

- pjc50 2y agoTrump got a fraud conviction and zero sentence.
- duxup 2y agoThe fact that injustice exists does not surprise me. Both in jail would be fine with me, but I wouldn't "not" put one in jail because of the other.
