Give my son fair sentencing!

The Issue

My Son was sentence to 60 years in prison for robberies he committed without any weapons. He was told by the judge that he was going to make an example out of him. My son has never been to prison, he has seen a judge when it pertained to traffic tickets. He graduated high school, has a wife and three small children, at the time of the robberies my son was addicted to gambling. My son was sent to maximum security prison. How is that justice. 60 years is a life sentence. He needed help not a life sentence in a maximum security prison.. does this time really fit the crime?
