Cobby33Skilling, assuming he spends ALL 24 years behind bars, will be 76 when he's released, assuming he is. I haven't looked at life expectancy tables lately, but presumably, he'll have some time left.
As for the serious felons, I think most would admit the CJ system needs an overhaul here as well, but it won't be a productive argument when the premise that "a lot of murderers get out in less than 24, so why should Skilling have to spend more time." Apples and oranges.
