20 years is way too much when you have murderers and rapists getting way less, and the punishment doesn't fit the crime.

Hah, I love the poll at the bottom.

Do you think she got the punishment she deserves?

A. Yes, she should spend years behind bars.
B. No, she should have gotten more time in jail.

I don't really understand why someone would masquerade as armed forces personnel if you didn't actually serve. People who did serve can easily figure out that you didn't.

Same goes for people who masquerade as members of the FBI/CIA/etc.

damn. I wonder why they even did this? what's the point in pretending to be a soldier and why would you not think you would be found out?

According to the article, she lied about being injured while in military service and claimed she needed a wheelchair.

So yeah, pretty fucking heinous.

I wouldn't really call it "heinous" but she apparently worked a job at a high school in character, in a wheelchair due to combat injuries. So she did a bit more than walking around in a uniform.

Very odd. I don't see why you would do something like this.

Cause very often in the U.S. you get a lot of respect and perks for doing so.

I remember watching a video about a guy whose dad was in the military all of his son's life. Once the son grew up, he would put on his dads uniform when out in public. When asked about it, he talked about how he liked the respect people gave him simply by wearing the uniform. He mentioned about how since he had been around the military all his life, he knew what to say and what not to get people to believe him, so he could fake it pretty well I guess.

He faked it well enough to the point that a car dealership allowed him to drive off the lot with a car, despite not having lojack on it. He actually stole the damn thing and went joyriding.

I think she should do time, but 20 years sounds excessive. The 7 years she's required to serve sounds a bit more reasonable, although I feel it's not really something that warrants more than 5.

That is unless she used the identity to reap benefits illegally. Then I can understand making an example out of her...

She also made up a person and created a military ID using that fake person, gave herself a purple heart, and used it to gain a purple heart license for her car.

Article pointed out how she was caught with this video. It was enough to use in trial.

US military looks awful tossing her in jail for 20 years.

Give her a fine and be on your way who cares about "stolen valor"

Yes kids I and every male in my family was in the military at one point and no we don't give a damn about stolen valor. Also before you bring up combat yes I and my grandfather saw combat.

I feel this article is missing some key details. Surely this woman was a victim of the 3-strikes bullshit, and not actually serving 20 years just for impersonating a soldier?

Torn on this. Generally free expression but what she did was fraud.

Valor thieves are garbage tier humans but the constant whiners are fuck balls annoying. I've watched more stolen valor videos than I care to admit, 20 years is batshit insane though.

Oh. I just read it and she got license plates and stuff for her fake identity, so I guess the charges weren't even for the valor theft, it's for falsifying info on government documents.
