I thought we were all supposed to be equal before the law?

The crime is really irrelevant.

This man was spared a jail sentence because of his age.

So we let off an eighty four year old for fraud. Where do we draw the line? Which crimes should the elderly be exempt from serving a custodial sentence for?

Kidnapping, child molestation, or is it ok as long as it is a 'victimless crime', which a younger person would serve a gaol sentence for?
