Agreed, but how do you punish this professor if he's actually guilty? This is a dangerous, well-educated lunatic in a professional setting who is responsible for shaping young minds. I'm seriously considering the possibility that a life sentence is not egregious and would set a nice precedent.
I generally don't like setting such precedents because I don't think they deter other people from committing the same crime; if anything, there is a chance it will create a martyr out of him. Punish him like you would every other person in this situation. Courts should literally just follow the law. We should try to preserve objectivity. Subjective view of the world is their game.
