FRAUD: Sentences should be longer

| April 12, 2026 1:00 AM

Every day there is an article of someone or some group of people convicted for fraud charges anywhere from $100,000 to hundreds of millions. The prison sentences vary so much and it’s hard to actually get details, because it varies from state to state, whether it is a federal charge or local state charges. 

Some sentences give a sentence so incredibly low, say five years, but they have to pay restitution. So how does this criminal pay restitution for millions of dollars, obviously he won’t be able to. Once again, the taxpayers lose out.
