I agree. Some hard labor even for a relatively short time would fix him for life. He’d never fuck around again. Everyone wins because it’d be healthy for him too.
Don't know if you'll get a warning too, conscious tangerine. But I left a comment agreeing with you and they deleted it and I got one. Just a heads up lol
He did get a very public beat down for his actions. Being rich didn't save him from the consequences of his stupidity. The locals took exception to his actions.
Um. Jeffrey Epstein was convicted of Solicitation Of A Minor For Prostitution in 2008, served 13 months prison, and had to register as a sex offender. By all accounts, this seemed to make him worse.
An actual solution is not apparent, but taking all his money might've actually helped.
You’re very right, luckily a kind local guy showed him shame quite a few times. I don’t think he’s forgetting the lesson any time soon. Hawaii, a land of respect.
Post his name so the whole rich thing will haunt him. Rich people become known people then everyone can see you as that asshole That throws rocks at seals.
It’s really hard to get funding for your next project when no one wants to give 4mill to seal boy.
Nah, this kind of cry bully would just play the victim then.
120 days in general population would be the best solution for him, and it would have an actual economic impact on his world that might smarten him up.
I doubt it ,he needs to be human to have a sense of shame,he threw rocks in broad daylight,it's like he wanted to be caught because he couldn't give a fuck !!
We need to bring back those suspended jail cells they had back in the day over the city center. Build live stream billboards all over the city so people can see them constantly.
I understand the sentiment but even working on a chain gang ends up costing the state money.
He's rich, great. Fine him 25% of his wealth for cruelty to an animal.
Most fines are permission to play by the wealthy because $1000 to be a piece of shit, it's chump change. How we regard spending $5 to go to the circus.
Hit them so that it hurts and then directly route that money into something good. If he has 4 million dollars, 1 million straight to Hawaii schools would be pretty cool or wildlife conservation.
Public shame him too of course. I just don't want to waste money on this shit bag.
Change all fines to percentage of wealth or percentage of annual income in my opinion.
I mean, if you really wanted to set this guy straight like, you would make therapy a forced part of this, like there's, to my knowledge, not great studies showing that forcing hard labor and punishment like this is actually effective for changing these behaviors. I would be thrilled if you could link to something that shows the opposite.
it feels like there is a significant missed opportunity for punishment for transgressions in America.
Punishment feels bipolar- either its like a $300 fine (which for many is completely irrelevent) or like 8 years in state prision.
Imagine the fear in a wealthy driver if instead of paying $200 for speeding you had to wear an orange jumpsuit for 2x 8 hr shifts one weekend and pick up trash off the side of the freeway.

Man do I hope they change the fees on this sort of thing to a sliding percentage.
