How did she only get a year in prison.

Dispatches from the Culture Wars: Hovind's Wife Sentenced

Kent Hovind's wife, Jo, was finally sentenced for her role in their tax fraud conviction. She was sentenced to one year and one day in prison plus $8000 in fines and 3 years probation. Far lighter than Kent's sentence but her attorney says he still plans on appealing.

I don't understand how Jo Hovind, apparently equally culpable in her activities to hubby Kent (Dr Flintstone) Hovind but gets about a tenth of the sentence.
