Do you think this is justice?

Cliffs for those too lazy:
1) 2 PA Luzerne County judges, elected by the public, confess to taking kickbacks totalling $2.6million from private juvenile detention and behavioral correction camps for increasing headcounts. First one has been accused of misdeeds before
2) Kids were sentenced for "crimes" as petty as mocking an asst. principal on a myspace page, stealing coins out of unlocked cars. These crimes, committed by first-time offenders, male and female in their low teens, received several months in wilderness camps or detention facilities.
3) Judges that confessed were given 87 months in prison.
4) ??
5) no profit
So my thought here is WHY THE FUCKING LENIENCY ON THE JUDGES???? These guys, supposedly the most trustworthy and powerful men in the government, entrusted with doling out fair justice to criminals, abuse the highest position the law affords them (in their county) and they get 87 months? These fuckers should serve every single minute they sentenced any kid to time in shackles or time away from their family.
