If he has reformed, then what harm would sentencing him to a life in prison do? Worst case scenario he would just rot away - best case he could continue on his path writing and teaching.

So why put anyone in jail? It's like revenge really.
I mean the guy stole money from Enron and he won't work anywhere else probably so why throw him in jail?
The logic doesn't flow. I don't believe in the death penalty, but I think what he has done is pretty bad.
I think guys like this should be sent to fight in Iraq. People think that's a joke, but it's not. If they die, it won't be at our hands and they'll alleviate the troop shortage.
