And by the way, the minimum sentence for a "basic" sexual assault case is 97 months, to a max of 210. That amount exponentially gets larger based on other factors (victim age, amount of victims, etc). Any convict may also get out early, because of parole or other circumstances.
These people knew the risks of what they were doing. They knew what would happen if they got caught. And they did. A crime is a crime.
The more you know.

Seriously? They could have done things leagues worse and got less time. This is just fucked up when you think about it.
Re: FBI FINALLY ARRESTS GROUP OF FORMER XBOX HACKERS
If you people have actually read the Smoking Gun article, you'll know they actually did more than just "steal video games". The hackers gained access to "a" U.S. military server, stole Microsoft Log-in Credentials, and Intellectual Property to build a counterfeit Xbox One prior to its release. If they had succeeded, the hackers would (potentially) have gained at least a million dollars each in addition to fraud money.
Next time, look up the sources instead of trying to compare petty somethings as having a longer prison time than "torturing and raping children". >:V
