Depends on what the context is...
In an affadavit... yes...?
In an election... maybe?
As a press release from a prosecutors office?
Probably not.
Either you like Mrs. Ortiz or not, no one is really going to make their decision based on whether or not Aaron Schwartz believed he was facing 6 years, or 35 years.
He was looking at 6 months tops, which means serving 2 tops as a first time offender, which means probably out in a month, which means probably a suspended sentence. My advice to anyone thinking about killing themselves over spending 35 years in jail... stop watching Oz, visit someone actually in a minimum security prison, ask them what it's like, take a plea for 4 months, get some exercize, go to bed early, eat some shitty food and enjoy all the ammenities club fed has to offer for a month or two.
- FSEA 14y agoHow is it going in fantasy land? Where you make assumptions on top of assumptions then roll with it as your own version of reality?
- DanBC2 14y agoHave you spent any time in prison? Have you visited anyone in any prison? Which federal prison do you suppose Mr Swartz would have been sent to if he had been convicted?
- yardie 14y agoI don't believe he was going to do 35 years, nor 6 months. I don't think he did anything that warranted serving a jail sentence and felony conviction at all. If you think just taking the felony rap without serving a sentence is just as good, boy does the rest of the world has some news for you. I think he was already depressed, the charges were weighing on him, and so were the legal fees.
