"Won't someone please think of the poor criminals" is definitely a tough sell in the US.

Compassion for criminals who get what they deserve is false compassion. The victim is the proper object of compassion.

The three purposes of punishment are retribution, rehabilitation, and deterrence. Him getting 25 years isn't undeserved.
