I agree. What he did was wrong and I can empathize why the victims would feel violated and terrified.

But also yes, what he did was clearly not malicious. Two years is HARSH. Dude needs help, not a beat down.

I see where the U.S. gets its criminal punishment tendencies from. We learned from Papa U.K. Except, there is a nonzero chance he would have been shot over here, (~~or killed by the cops~~, wait nevermind, he's not black) so at least he's got that going for him over there.
