This is not an exaggeration. This is a direct quote from a local news story about a really bad man who got caught doing really bad things. Someone, please, how we got from 360 to 25?!

First and foremost – never take what you read in a paper or in the mediaas unadorned, accurate truth. Journalists are good at reporting stuff, but not always so good at understanding it well enough to not make errors. I genuinely have yet to read a report on anything I knew about first hand, that wasn’t significantly inaccurate and misleading. Having said that…
One possibility is that someone has been sentenced for multiple offences, the sentences to run concurrently (alongside each other), the longest sentence is 25 years, and the total time is 360 years.
Why that would happen is basically that the court has decided that serving 25 years is appropriate – but they’re making sure that he WILL serve it, even if half a dozen or more of the sentences are overturned – he still has to serve the time for the ones that aren’t overturned.
