You're right, and I was out of line.
I did see statistics recently, and I'm not going to pretend that I remember the numbers, but of young people going to the prison, an overwhelming account will be raped within the first two days. This held true for men
and women. So, sentencing someone to "just" several months or a year isn't doing anyone any favors.
I still cannot state strongly enough that this roommate was
supposedly a friend to Clementi, and ended up betraying him to the point of suicide. I cannot think of any type of work where that type of behavior would make him a stand-out candidate for any job.
