This might be a better link as it points to the original source: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.justice.gov&#x2F;usao-cdca&#x2F;pr&#x2F;santa-barbara-county-man-sentenced-6-months-prison-obstructing-federal-probe-plane#:~:text=LOS%20ANGELES%20%E2%80%93%20A%20YouTuber%20pilot,County%20to%20gain%20online%20views" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.justice.gov&#x2F;usao-cdca&#x2F;pr&#x2F;santa-barbara-county-ma...</a>.

Such a &quot;waste of life&quot;. On one hand, the guy doesn&#x27;t really look like a &quot;bad guy&quot; with a habit of nefarious or negligent doing, and nobody got hurt in the accident. On the other hand, we simply cannot let thing type of careless action go unpunished.<p>Nobody in his entourage told him it was a bad idea ?

I was a little unsettled by some of the bloodlust around this guy, with people saying quite seriously that he should face even a life sentence for what he did. (Personal aviation folks, mostly.)<p>But on the other hand, 6 months seems incredibly lenient. What do people here feel?

Wasnt expecting someone to link a fox news article here today.

How long will h actually serve?
