    I can’t claim to understand as well as you, though I can say that a family member of mine has Asperger’s Syndrome, so I’ve been close and personal to the issue for essentially my entire life. Though that’s all to say very little, given how widely different each and every person with Asperger’s is.

    It’s a tough call for me as I absolutely believe there should be some level of repercussion but honestly, as you mention, the efficacy of custodial sentences for crimes of this nature are very much up for debate.

    All this aside, I appreciate your perspective on this thanks.
