Yeah, and being as its the world's largest philantropic organisation we can kiss goodbye to the billions raised worldwide for some of the most deserving (yet overlooked) charities.
And no, I am not a mason.
The sentence isn't that light. People have got suspended sentences for manslaughter in the past.
Considering:
1. He pleaded guilty
2. Its his first offence
3. His previous good character
4. The person he stole from was his friend, and although it doesn't say, he could well have spoken in defence of the thief.
5. Most of the money went back into the masons, and so to charity. The rest helped out a friend with his mortgage.
It hardly makes him Hitler. He was lucky to have his sentence suspended, but its not a major miscarriage of justice.
