But you see, for a lowly drug addict, not faring well in prison is not much of a downgrade, whereas for this guy with such a lifestyle, the punishment is effectively so much more severe. You have to take that into account. The punishment equivalent of rotting in prison for Richards is having his favorite golf ball taken away.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
