4. oh, that poor poor child... and all the other children too

What kind of signal is that to 1) pedophiles and 2) children that he got out in 11 years?

Criminals are given sentences like 700 years all the time... why didn't they just give him the sentence he deserved and then hope he died in prison, instead of depending on it? I read that the prosecutor didn't want the kids to have to testify so they agreed to a plea bargain with a ridiculously short sentence; maybe it really did seem like the best decision at the time.
