Like, theres really no argument that it doesn't. But hey, if it passes by the first court, it will take forever to be appealed so lets do it! Of course it was appealed and lowered to $54 thousand. But again, thats clearly an excessive amount and violates the 8th amendment. You cant justify charging someone 2250x the cost of what was stolen. Itd be like, if you got caught shoplifting an apple from a grocery store and then had to pay a $2250 fine. Its laughable.
