Are you familiar with Gilberto Valle, the so-called "Cannibal Cop"?

Valle was arrested after his wife discovered he was spending time in chat rooms describing detailed plans to abduct, torture, rape and cannibalize women; Valle claimed all scenarios he described were mere fantasy. The case drew widespread attention for its unusual nature — Valle was dubbed the "Cannibal Cop" — and because of the legal issue of whether describing criminal activities crosses the line into criminal intent.

If yes, do you think he should have received a harsher sentence?

Yes. Just like that guy who made a rape dungeon and tried to buy a kid.

Hard to understand how he got off so lightly.

Because people consider it to be only a thought crime

The most frightening part is that he actually searched a police database for potential victims. That goes way beyond thought crime. Admittedly, he was found guilty on that count, but the sentence was reduced to time served.
