Where is justice?
The McCorkles' 24-year prison sentence on charges of swindling customers with a real-estate scam has been dismissed. However, depending on what the trial court finds, the McCorkles still could face sentences of 17.5 to 24 years.
       The McCorkles cheated no one except those who bought videos and other materials from them. Unlike the CEOs and CFOs of Enron, WorldCom, Global Crossing, etc., etc., which cheated everyone while concealing their unlawful activities and drove masses to financial ruin, the McCorkles sit in prison. The corrupt executives stole billions for their own use, building multimillion-dollar homes, driving exotic vehicles, donating to political parties, and smiling as retirement 401(k)s went down the toilet.
       Congress wrings its hands, yet has no plan as severe as the McCorkles face. The government took everything from the McCorkles: money, property, offshore accounts, everything it could lay its hands on, and put them into prison. Where is this justice now?
       Oh, I almost forgot: The McCorkles did not donate any money to political campaigns.
