Nah, violent people like this need to serve their time. Homeboy still earned his place in the slammer. No time off. He's still clearly violent and what he's doing is still illegal which means he isn't rehabilitated at all.

But I absolutely support giving this guy a nice fat stack of cash and a few privileges while he's in to buy whatever he wants. And if he wants to watch UFC on pay-per-view or to bring in a few hookers or something from time to time, or see his family or whatever, they ought to make that easy.
