Madoff is a threat to society. Talk to the people who lost the money they had set aside for their retirement if he is a threat. Ask the charities that will be able to do less if he is a threat.
It's also important to send a message. If you do things like this, you will not just get a slap on the wrist. That is a key message.
I have to disagree. I just don't see the threat to society over someone who is a violent criminal.
So you say this is supposed to send a message, I guess sentencing violent criminals a couple years sends the message violence and murder is more acceptable than stealing people's money. Because money is more important than lives.
