Is a 6-month jail term too much or too little for the guy who attempted to extort David Letterman? Will you watch to see what Dave?

I don't find Letterman to be especially entertaining, so I doubt I'll spend the time to see what he has to say about this matter. Personally, I think that 6 months in jail is insufficient for this sort of crime as it should have been much longer to provide more deterrence to discourage people from extortion. However, at least the 1000 hours of community service will give something positive back to society, without the tax payer having to provide room and board to this... person... longer than those 6 months.

Finally, the fact that he pleaded guilty, saving everyone the expense, time, and trouble of a full trial (as well as saving Letterman's family any more embarrassment that such a trial would have provoked) should count somewhat in his favor. So, bottom line, I think it should have been at least a year in prison, but it's not completely unjustifiable.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
