Extract "In July 1990 a lower court sentenced the leader to
seventeen years in prison. The court sentenced one accomplice to a
four to six year term, one accomplice to a three to four year term,
and another accomplice to an indefinite five to ten year term. The
leader and the first two of the three appealed their rulings. The
higher court gave more severe sentences to the three appealing
parties. The presiding judge, Ryuji Yanase, said that the court did
so because of the nature of the crime, the effect on the victim's
family, and the effects of the crime on society. The leader
received a twenty year sentence, the second highest possible
sentence after life
imprisonment. Of the two appealing accomplices,
the one that originally got four to six years received a five to
nine year term. The other accomplice had his sentence upgraded to a
five to seven year term.[4]"
So they come out already right?
