The 24 year old will get out in 10 years. Therefor he will have the option of still leading a productive life, or going back to a life of crime and still being dangerous at 34.

Now the other guy is another story. He's 31 now, so when he gets out in 40 he'll be 71. Way too late to start a normal life and too old to be an effective criminal. If he's even alive at all by the time he gets out. I know a Kilo is allot of dope but the punishment just doesn't seem to fit the crime in his case.

You talk like you expect them to serve their entire sentence. It would be a shock if they serve a tenth. That's ages 25 and 35.
