Rubashkin's 27 years means 27 years?

As we see, when they sentenced Pollard to "life" they meant it.

When they sentenced Katsav to 7 years , they meant it.

These sentences are unfair and obviously l'maaleh/l'matah min hateva.

Is it really possible that there be no appeal, no judicial review, no mercy, no presidential pardon, and that in the year 2039 we could see a 79 year old Shalom Rubashkin totter out of jail i.e. that 27 years in jail means 27 years?

Seems that nobody cares about a Jew who is imprisoned...

We cannot allow them to rot... Remember all Jewish prisoners...
You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities
Duet 16:13-14
