WTF? Craziness! All that time and tax payer money spent on a pot smoker. Start jailing the corrupt politicians, and corporate execs instead...

I wonder how much time he's going to get for this:

He also said that although he did smuggle methamphetamine into the country, he did not offer the drugs to others. |

He should have said " I was drunk when I took the drugs." He would have gotten off. |

Only if he talked about how much stress he was under which lead to the drinking and the chain of events.
I am surprised the whole Korean way of saying you're sorry and showing remorse didn't get him off totally like Dr. (snicker) Hwang did.

On the contrary, he clearly states that blow=/weed |

Meh.
There are plenty of (black) Americans serving life sentences for much smaller offences. Probably even some whites too. Not wealthy ones though. |

Are you sure the 4 years wasn't for the meth he admitted he smuggled? I know this may sound crazy, but sometimes Korean newspapers misreport things in English.
4 years for meth transportation/dealing is pretty reasonable. Considering the utter devastation that meth has done I think it's pretty lenient. |
