Wrong. Men are sitting decades for pen and paper art.

I read more details, Smelko was caught up in someone else's search warrant. Arguably Smelko did nothing directly other than being at the wrong place/time to set off the chain of events which lead to his 15 year sentence.

This is why I eagerly await jury duty notices, had I been on Smelko's trial I would have no-reason acquitted (known as jury nullification).
