"Cunningham was sentenced in March to more than eight years in federal prison and is being housed at a low-security correctional center in North Carolina."

Yet, a female illegal was sentenced to 6 months in jail and deportation for collecting 26,000 a month in welfare benefits(identity theft, credit identity theft) over a five year period.

Let's see ... the Duke stole 2.4 million, so ...

100.0*60*26000/2.4e6 = 65.0

... by that standard, she should have got 5.5 years. Of course, on the other hand, she didn't place control of congress in jeopardy. Grrr......
