But wouldn't really suck if such a sentence (even if subconsciously) was a result of the past actions of your accomplice?
I haven't paid enough attention to know if the sentence is reasonable (and I'm sure the judge, if it isn't, took care to make sure it could be argued that it is) so I'm not saying it isn't. But regardless of whether it is, I've heard a lot of sentiment (not just here) that this sentence is the opportunity to correct the error of the murder trial. Which is a horrible sentiment (even if emotionally satisfying).
