    Jail time is a tough pill to swallow given the things people get off with today...

    Hope this isn't the new normal for evaluations based on test scores...

    They should have stolen millions or billions of dollars instead. Then they'd be given bailout money and a golden parachute. This country is screwed.

    They refused to admit guilt. That's why they got the time they did. 2 did admit guilt and got off light.

    Odds are they thought there was some chance of getting off and finding a way back to employment.

    They were wrong.
