It was overzealous prosecution of the breaking into a closet to wire up some ethernet cables to gain access to the materials

Not the downloading with intent

And apparently the most controversial take on this community is the observation that many people would have done the trial, plea and time, regardless of how overzealous the prosecution was

> breaking into a closet

"The closet's door was kept unlocked, according to press reports"

When's the last time a kid with no record, a research fellow at Harvard, got threatened with 35 years for a simple B&E?

They threaten

Its the plea or sentencing where that stuff gets taken into account for a reduction to community service

I'm glad you still have that much faith in the system. That's much more faith than I have in the system (and more faith than I had in the system back then, too).
