How do you ensure the penalty is actually higher then what the criminals managed to put aside?

An uncle of an ex-girlfriend was put in jail for a MITM scheme in the construction bussiness. He was active for about 2 years until they got him. When I heard an estimate of how much he made, I went ahead and did the 24/7 hourly rate calculation for his jailtime. It was a 3 digit figure.

I'm not sure you can count it as income if it gets seized as part of prosecution.

The point of the story was that the money actually never got seized.
