33 years in prison for the victimless crime of looking at dirty pictures sounds rather draconian.
First I don't support child rapists. Never have, never will. But this guy wasn't accused of raping a child. He merely was in possession of child porn, what every that is. The article doesn't accuse him of raping or molesting anyone. Jailing anyone for a victimless crime is wrong.
