Official corruption, gross misappropriation of public wealth,  treasonable offense

The official corruption, gross misappropriation of public wealth should be codified as treasonable offense to the State; therefore a federal crime. One found guilty of this offense should receive a minimum of life imprisonment that is not subject to presidential or executive pardon. Only the act of Congress can provide pardon for anyone convicted of treason. To be eligible for Congressional pardon the convict must have served no less than 10 years of the life imprisonment and must have or be able to return to the public coffer the whole wealth looted with 20% annual interest on the amount or value of the loot for each year the loot or part of thereof remains in the possession of the looter. To be eligible for congressional pardon the culprit must consent to make live public media apology to the nation and consent never to seek any public office at any government level and must not be involved in any future felonious crime. No plea bargain should be extended to a public official charged with misappropriation of public wealth unless the accused pleads guilty to all charges against him or her; have the means and able to return with interest every penny looted. Yet a looter who receives plea bargain must serve a 5 year minimum prison time for his or her criminal act.
