Reflecting on Life Plus

Two men each received two life sentences plus 512 years in prison on Friday for robbing a grocery store in St. Charles.

Wow. If Martin Luther had gotten that sentence for his 95 theses, he'd be eligible for release in 2128. Of course, in today's prosecution environment, he'd have gotten a separate count of something for each thesis.

It's good to see perspective and reasonability involved in sentencing. After all, with improvements in medical science, it's important that we as a society sentence offenders to half a milennium in prison.
