#3If you steal more than $5K three times in California, you will get 25 years in prison [1], and while I think that's disgusting and detestable, I don't want any elites getting special treatment either, so as to force change in those sentencing guidelines.

It's pretty disgusting how little jail time she's receiving for the scope of her crimes.

11 years is quite a long time and seems suitable for scamming some idiots out of their money.
IMO the reason it seems low is that people get such unreasonably long sentences for doing far less.

Right, but Holmes didn't steal $5k more than three times. She stole millions of dollars but only did it once. So your statute doesn't apply.

#7Good, her children will be better off not being raised by a felon mother. The father's family has plenty of money, the kids will be well cared for without her around. With luck the father will find a new mother for the kids and they'll forget about Holmes.

Can't tell if serious. Can you see how the second might be seen as worse than the first? Literally perverse incentives.
"Go big or go home" and no worries! Couple years in Federal summer camp and you go back to your cushy upper class lifestyle as a consultant or startup advisor, or "executive coaching" for other future/wannabe scammers

She only got caught once, but as an ongoing thing I think it's safe to say that she stole more than once.
