    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again and again, fuck Carmen Ortiz, such an senseless tragedy. What else was he destined for, he was so young but left such a great legacy.

    You’re comparing apples to oranges. Epstein was actually sentenced to 18 months. Swartz was facing charges that, on paper, could lead to a decades-long sentence, but there was no chance that he would actually receive a sentence that long. The plea deal they offered him was six months in prison.

    Aaron was threatened with multiple decades to coerce him into taking the deal and giving the prosecutor the win they wanted.
