Mohamed Toure and Denise Cros-Toure, a Fort Worth couple accused of enslaving a Guinean woman for 16 years.
Trial evidence showed the Tourés brought the girl, who was then at least 5 years old but perhaps as old as 13, from her rural Guinean village in 2000. They forced her to work without pay in their home as a housekeeper, cook and nanny until she fled and alerted authorities. The Tourés were convicted in January, and prosecutors had sought the full 20-year prison sentences allowed by law. However, U.S. District Judge Reed O’Conner tempered the sentence request.

Registered Democrats?
Sounds light.
They should spend 16 years just like she did.
That's it damn they should get just as long or longer as the amount of time they had the lil girl enslaved. WTF
They literally won’t even be punished for half of the time they enslaved humans.
What? The sentence is less than half the time they enslaved her!!! A fairer sentence would have been 32 years

A Texas couple has been sentenced to 7 years in prison for forcing a young girl to work in their home for 16 yearsWhen she arrived in the US, the West African girl was just five years old, but she soon was responsible for caring for a Texas couple's children, cooking, cleaning and mowing the lawn. She was abused and neglected for 16 years -- until she escaped, according to a criminal complaint against the couple. Shouldn’t the punishment fit the crime?! 7 not equal to 16! So they had 16 years of slave labor but only have to pay it back with 7 years of their own labor. hmmmm Texas? Weird. They look Mexican.
