Real problem is the kids Doug5 is talking about always seem to get off scott free -- often because their civil rights have been violated, while the minor offenders that Jillio is talking about are often nailed to the wall and made "examples" of.
In that regard things don't seem to change.
In any case a judge that sends people to jail to receive kickbacks owes more to those unfairly sentenced than jail time -- Some restitution ought to be in order.
