Proof once again that justice at its highest levels in the US is to punish the poor and middle class and slap the rich on their wrists. There are people who have stolen food to eat who have gotten harsher punishments.
Are there?
Not defending three strikes laws from thirty years ago which have since been repealed anyway, but this was not someone "stealing to eat."
(Also not defending these laws/the decision there, but) I'm not sure why this is phrased as merely an allegation by the prosecution, since this is what transpired even by his own account.
"One Friday he and some friends were hanging out on the pier on Redondo Beach. He claims he was "playing a stupid game of truth-or-dare with a friend" when he approached a group of kids whose parents had left them eating pizza at an outdoor table and asked them for a slice."

if even poverty was unable to prevent that person from stealing food when hungry then they are clearly irredeemable.

And keep in mind that she wasn't the mastermind, she was just dumb and easily manipulated...
Her parents are both MIT Professors. She was on the US team(!) for the International Linguistic Olympiad. She won all sorts of academic contests before getting a Math degree from Stanford.
She was CEO of Alameda Research.
And now we're supposed to believe she was a "dumb" naive waif, manipulated and preyed upon by SBF, that evil manipulative shark?!
