      Yes, it was. The person who made the swatting call was tied to several other calls so he got the longest. Personally, I think the guy who hired him should have gotten more time and the person that instigated the issue I believe didn’t get anything. That sends a bad message to others like him that it’s okay. I think he deserved a fair amount of jail time and a permanent restriction from accessing the Internet.
