In reply to the discussion: Assuming arguendo,*45 is guilty of espionage, obstruction etc; what punishment would fit the crime? [View all]GoCubsGo
(32,102 posts)34. I am torn
I want him to get the worst punishment possible, and that is to spend what's left of his miserable fucking life in a tiny cell in ADX Florence, or in some NY State Prison. I want him to spend those days knowing that his three oldest spawn are also in prison, and that every last penny of their assets have been confiscated and sold off to pay for the money he has wasted over the past two years.
But, I also hate that precious resources will be wasted on keeping him alive, so I would not cry if he met the same fate as Mussolini Instead of hanging his and his brats' corpses from the nearest bridge, dangle them from the Statue of Liberty's torch.

Life in prison and the seizure of his assets. I want his name to be as valuable as dirt.

I still believe in life imprisonment in an appropriate federal detention facility.
