Well, possibly.
Summary: Fellow busted in the not-too-distant past, supposedly being responsible for up to 1/3 of the LSD production in the USA.

I think I was the first person to mention his arrest here, I really doubt there claim of 1/3 of U..s' acid production, is basically propaganda designed to make him seem more like a money oriented drug dealer, then the experimental scientist he was. Obviously him and his counterparts were harvard graduates, trying to follow in the footsteps of the smartest Harvard graduates, so we put him in Jail!

That sounds more like the average sentence for vehicular manslaughter. Murderers get 25 years or life, unless they get death. Where do you live? Where ever it is murderers get off mighty light.

That article is differnent then what I read. What was first availabe was a story about how a local farmer reported suspicious activity near the old silo. Who exactly is Skinner, is he the other guy involved with the manufacturing they did? The first story said that two harvard graduates were arrested.

"The average sentence for murder conviction is 6.5 years" http://highland.userworld.com/rarebits/88/issue46/46issue.html
"the average sentence for murder and non-negligent manslaughter is less than six years" http://www.prodeathpenalty.com/Liebman/Cassell_Innocents.htm
"Now it seems the average sentence for murder varies from 5 years to 13 years in jail!" http://www.pastornet.net.au/fwn/1997/jun/comment.htm
"The US average sentence for drug possession is 4.2 years, compared with 7.4 years for Oklahoma." http://www.geocities.com/lifebetweenbars_2001/Story2.html
I stand corrected.

Yeah, quite possibly, although per the DEA, they also believe that most is produced by a very small number of chemists. It may have been a big amount...I don't think that's why there's an apparent LSD shortfall in almost every place I've heard by itself, but if there was a big bust I could see producers becoming extremely edgy about it and/or holding off until there's an enormous demand for which they can charge more.
Just thoughts, really.

It's still amazingly stupid, isn't it? Bad enough that it's illegal at all - but that you're doing as much as violent offenses, and close to many things which actually involve the death of another person?
Argh, trying not to think about it now....will give me a headache.
