Why when a high profile politic is sentenced it goes to a 5 star suite while the rest of mortals are thrown to a hole?

It seems that when you cross a certain invisible threshold "justice" applies just a bit differently. Same in Argentina with corrupt and ex-robber Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner.

Does he have better conditions than any other French persons convicted of a similar crime?

The cell is the same but he is alone in it, most convicts have a cellmate

I don't know, but what I do know that "jail" has a very different meaning for me.

In Argentina the lives of people of an entire country have been ruined because of the last 20 years of robbery from the state arcs.

Yet every disgusting politician is out there or has served a laughable sentence. And what do you get in turn after ripping off a country? A home prision benefit.
