You're quite right that all factors should be considered and I'm not excusing Armstrong for any actual crime that he may have committed. The courts will decide that. As for what he may have done 30 years ago, that is an interesting story. I guess I have to ask why Armstrong would be so foolish to offer stamps for sale they he did not possess. Did he believe that he could obtain those stamps and make delivery to a customer? Who knows? But offering stamps for sale is not a crime. Taking actual money in exchange for something that one can not reasonably deliver is. Did money exchange hands during this transaction? Bringing up something from 30 years ago, without showing how someone was actually financially harmed, strikes me as somewhat ridiculous. Regards, Ron
