I'll give that presumptuous command all the consideration it's due.
As for the rest, your refutation amounts to me saying something is possible and worth considering, you saying it's unlikely and not worth considering. Fine. In the context of Paul's one post in this thread and my reply to it, that's all it amounts to.
In the specific case of what actually happened in the case he refers to, and curse all you people for making spend time to go look it up, it appears from the news reports of the time to be a pretty egregious case of abuse, and I would bet you are very right about the circumstances of the sentence.
