What are your thoughts on the sentence meted out to Felicity Huffman (two weeks in jail, $30,000 fine, couple hundred hours of community service) for the crime of paying $15,000 to a crook to get Felicity's daughter accepted into a desirable, highly competitive college? To my way of thinking, a better sentence would have been requiring Miss Huffman to pay full tuition and fees for at least three legitimately qualified students who are struggling financially.

I think a jail sentence for that type of crime is absurd. Who does it benefit? Certainly not the state that’s for sure. Does it deter? No! Work out what it is going to cost to incarcerate and then make that the fine. No drain on state resource and a a hefty chunk into the state coffers.
Whoever thought this was a jailable offensive is not thinking it through.
