I'm not on the fence: that part of it was terrible, immoral, and deserves justice. He was absolutely cold-blooded when it came to protecting what he'd built.

This is why it's so tough to simply say, "Free Ross!"

At the same time, there ultimately was no victim (and thus no action) taken against his horrible intention. His sentence is drastic and ridiculous in light of the crime, and is the result of the justice system attempting to make an example of him. I therefore have a very hard time balancing the justice he deserves with the justice he was handed.

And in such a miscarriage, it seems better for a man to go free.
