I disagree. They should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
There are no mitigating circumstances in a situation
like this. These are all people who knew better and chose
to do it because they thought they could get away without
real punishment and because they exalted their goals above the law.

That is exactly the kind of thing that should be punished.

Nope.
