He will likely serve 2 years at most, and after those two years one could reasonably predict he'll re-offend. In which case I'm reminded of porridge:
"You are an habitual criminal, who accepts arrest as an occupational hazard, and presumably accepts imprisonment in the same casual manner."
Now, apparently the guy never thought he'd go down for all of his crimes, but he knew arrest was a real risk. Same with prison. I'm afraid I don't have a strong opinion on what the best choices are that a criminal justice system can make. Clearly you aren't going to scare people straight with hardnosed punishments though, because their evaluation of risks are not what you think they should be.
I was basing it entirely on the guy as described by the article (as in, I was making wild assumptions).
Super cool site. That data would be pretty fun to play with though, age/offense count/previous offences/family etc would all be cool buckets to play with. Plus all the things I don't think of off the top of my head
