    His lawyers make in an hour than most Americans make in a month.

    He can and will petition for supervised release (basically asking to serve at home, or for the sweetheart deal Epstein got that let him only go to jail on the weekends.)

    Regardless, the dude stole more money than most Americans make in a decade and his sentence is a joke relative to if any normal American stole a pack of cigarettes.
