When I saw the title of the thread, I thought this was going to be a serious conversation about a serious crime. Then Ralphy showed up. Silly me.

Yeah, apparently some people think it's cute and funny to turn threads into Ralphy threads. Happens a lot.
 
There actually were some serious comments toward the end. Perhaps sometimes we overdo the irreverence. For my part, mea culpa to those who feel the thread was high jacked. Still no reason, IMHO for less than kind remarks, constructive comments are just that.
 
“The sentencing was a disappointing one for F.B.I. officials, who believed that Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. had given Mr. Petraeus preferential treatment by allowing him to plead guilty to a misdemeanor and recommending that he receive probation instead of prison time. Federal judges are not bound by such recommendations, but they almost always follow them.

Although the judge overseeing the case, David C. Keesler of United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, agreed to the probation sentence, he added $60,000 to the government’s suggested fine of $40,000. Judge Keesler did not give an extensive explanation for why he raised the fine, saying it was necessary because of “the seriousness of the offense.””
