Key legal question
Whether the 40-month prison sentence and ancillary penalties were excessive under Art. 47 StGB
Extracted holding
The sentencing did not violate federal law; the lower court properly weighed the culpability and mitigating factors.
Extracted reasoning
The lower court considered the relevant sentencing factors and did not rely on irrelevant criteria or abuse its discretion. No additional mitigation arose from mere acknowledgment of damage, claimed lack of boldness, partial recovery of stolen goods, alleged existential hardship, or the confession as described.
