He's an amoral chancer, but his sentencing should be revised. The judge can't have considered that the creditors might get all their money back.

the article states that the judge specifically excluded from consideration the outcome for creditors of the bankruptcy.
so yeah - he's got 25 years for what is effectively a victimless crime. and meanwhile similar shit goes on all over the place, just different people and different rules.
I agree that the sentence is absurdly harsh. Enron guy got 12 years. Phillip Green got ummm.... nothing.

I've had a read of that - it's a decent piece.
ultimately doesn't change my opinion of SBF, however it does suggest some interesting aspects of the motivations of others.
