It does amaze me that sex offenders say they will change like it is easy. Also people like this judge think it is easy or this was the only time. This was the only time he was caught how many offenders are there that only get caught every now and then then get off with a light sentance? Having compassion for someone who has done wrong does not mean forgoing punnishment, if the punnishment does not fit the crime it will not carry much of a learning factor with it, in fact it may work as a motivator because nothing really happened. It's like the anti drug commercials rock starts were doing in the 80s. The message was don't do drugs or you will have to do a commercial and that's it. Big deterrent there.
