Why do you think he only got 8% of 25 years? I will tell you, because he pled guilty. It is called a plea agreement and they do it because the court calendars are do full that they make these arrangements to save time.

Remember, they have to prove their case. They don't have 100% chance of winning. It works to their benefit also.

But blame your legislature for the laws, not the courts.
