Apparently, if you are obese, you don't have to go to jail!!
Seriously, jails and prisons don't have the capacity to keep larger inmates so even though if their crime is the same as a skinny persons, they get a lesser sentence.
Just read about the 1/2 ton...Repeat...a 1/2 TON woman who was convicted of the murder of her 2 year old nephew...she is on house arrest. A convicted murderer!
Or the man who was too fat to receive lethal injection because it would be cruel and unusual punishment even though he was convicted of killing 2 people in 1986!! 22 years ago and the debate over the ethical issues of his obesity was still being debated until early October of this year! Guess what? They gave him the injection anyways.
So, the moral of this story...apparently LARGE is in charge.
