A couple in Paducah, KY embezzled over $200,000 from a local convention center. The state dropped the charges against them so the fed's could take over the case. Their penalty? Up to 10 years and a fine of...get this...$250!!! West Kentucky Star - Featured News (http://www.westkentuckystar.com/Featured-News/State-Charges-Dropped-against-Kerr--Wilson - broken link)
To me, it sounds like the better deal would be the people that stole over $200K and will only have to pay back $250. They could have stolen the money, shipped it overseas to a bank, gained interest for the next ten years (if they get that long) and come out with a pretty penny. The Amish men have probably been fined OVER $250 and the state keeps spending money arresting them, keeping them in jail, etc. Both cases are guilty of breaking the law, but really, which group is getting the worst hand?
