Why does RKelly get 30 and Maxweel only 20? I'm unfamiliar with the charges, did RKelly do 50% more traffickin?

R Kelly is black and male
Maxwell is white and female

There's long-standing knowledge of tremendous bias against the former and to the benefit of the latter when it comes to sentencing disparity.
Just rare to see two similar massive cases with the exact most disadvantaged and most advantaged groups' representatives sentenced around the same time, and to further highlight the injustice, in the black man's case the judge went harder than the prosecution called for and in the white woman's case, the judge went softer than even their minimum bound.
