I too have some sympathy.

But is his conduct symptomatic of a general malaise in not seeing "victimless crime"? And getting away with it. Yesterday's paper reported £xbn of theft via self scans in supermarkets.

He knew what he was doing. That it was wrong. He went on doing it (the nail in the coffin). And he was caught. Most aren't.

The SDT penalty was inevitable and agreed. The criminal sentence seems severe as reported above, but I wasn't there. Maybe there is a lot of it going on.
