So it took FOUR to pull off this robbery. Let’s quadruple their prison sentences. Should be a law, two committing a violent felony – DOUBLE their prison time. If three commit a violent felony then TRIPLE their prison sentence. That would send a message to their friends who are planning a violent felony.
