This is NOT a case of a guy getting 20 years for just looking at 20 cartoons. I'm embarrassed on behalf of ABC for running the story without fact checking it.

Does the length of the sentence matter? The fact is, while the other things he had done contributed to the sentence, he was still convicted of possesing those cartoons, even if that was only a small part of it. It is still illegal to have them, and that law is still wrong.
