Too severe?
Yes, it is "creepy," especially as there might've been a little more than toe-sucking...
The bottom link/article quotes one victim saying he groped her (or started to) stopped, sucked her toes ---
And then made her kiss him... (Retch twice over).
Aside from the trauma, not knowing if the sicko's gonna kill you...
Now I understand why a "foot-fetish bandit" would get that much time!!!
Though -- if rapists get out in 15 ---- This guy really shouldn't be locked up more than 5-10...??
Neither link is the one you mention, Mitch, couldn't find that one

‘Foot fetish bandit’ sentenced to 57 years
By Nathan Gorenstein
INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
A West Philadelphia man will serve what amounts to a life sentence for a string of armed robberies in which he sexually assaulted women, ordering them to remove their shoes so he could suck their toes.
Richard Casey, 50, who became known as "the foot fetish bandit," was sentenced to serve a minimum of 57 years by Common Pleas Court Judge Joan A. Brown.
Two of Casey's victims were in the courtroom when Brown said she was going to give him a sentence that "will insure that he will no longer be a danger to society."
Casey was on parole for a 1992 robbery when he committed the crimes. He pleaded guilty March 13 to six robberies and sexual attacks on women between the ages of 21 and 55 in several Philadelphia neighborhoods between November 2006 and January 2007.
Assistant District Attorney Mark Cipolletti said Casey had a record dating back to childhood and as an adult had 10 arrests, 6 convictions and 5 incarcerations for a variety of assaults and robberies.

The man dubbed the "Toe Sucking Bandit" will probably spend the rest of his life in jail after his attacks on six women in Philadelphia.

Richard A. Casey, 50, was convicted of multiple counts of aggravated assault, terroristic threats and robbery. The attacks happened between November 2006 and January 2007.
On Thursday, Casey was sentenced to 57 years in jail.
Two victims were at court to hear the sentence read.
In May 2008, the Special Victims Unit of the Philadelphia Police were notified by the forensics laboratory of a hit in the CODIS system, matching several sexual assault cases to Casey.
Casey was labeled the "toe-sucking" bandit after he fondled the feet of several women and sucked on their toes when he attacked and robbed them.
"He came up to me on the side with a gun, in my side. He said don't scream or I will kill you," said one of his victims, who asked not to be identified.
Another victim said the suspect brutalized her at gunpoint before he fondled her and sucked on her feet.
"He sucked on my toes. He also started to grope me, but stopped that for some reason. Then he made me make out with him or kiss him."
