His crime was homosexuality. They went after him for taking money out of his own bank accounts. He is in prison for the latter. We are in Twilight Zone time.

Well, the 15 months are for the financial issues.
For the raping of young men, there really isn’t a fit punishment for that.
The domino effect of not only destroying lives of innocent young people, possibly turning them into homosexuals, and even worse, potential child predators, can’t be punished here on earth.

Horrible abuse of those innocent athletes by Speaker Hastert. He is a truly disgusting criminal.

Do not expose your opponent until you exploited them. You can be pretty sure that some on both sides of the aisle knew this was hanging over Hastert’s head.

This comes at an opportune time to remind GOPe beneficiaries that ALL of you have dirt that can’t be washed out, ever, and that we, the Borg, OWN you.

He’ll be running again for his old House seat after his release.
As a DemocRAT.

Nothing is more stunning than having serial child molester and speaker of the House in the same sentence. Oh, I don't know. "Hillary Clinton" and "President of the United States" in the same sentence sounds a lot worse.

sex-offender treatment... It's sick. The government requires him to undergo "sex-offender treatment" while the Supreme Court pretends that homosexuality is normal.

From public school teacher to Congrss to multi-millionaire.
Those salaries don’t make you a millionaire.

Wondering where a former teacher/coach got millions to pay in ransom...just kidding. We all know how you can elected poor but you aren’t long!
Fifteen months for the wrong crime.

He raped teenage boys that he coached and mentored. He deserves to rot in jail with Jerry Sandusky.
