Should police and politicians receive harsher sentences?

When police, judges or politicians break the law should they receive a longer sentence and/or larger fine than a common citizen?
Answer:
its called equal protection under the law, and it is firmly engrained in our Constitution, so the answer is no.

YES ,but most get away with their crimes because somehow they are above the law.

---

I think so...they deal with laws and rules more on a daily basis than most people so they are more aware of it. That my opinion.

The punishment should fit the crime.However,Some judges should make examples of these people.Hopefully that will make them think twice before breaking the laws they swore to upold.

---

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! They deserve the same punishment as anyone else.

No, but they should receive the same sentences as a common citizen and not be given preferential treatment just because of their positions.
