Roger Stone has not been given unprecedented or any other amount of time. He was found guilty by a jury. They heard the evidence and voted him as guilty. The prosecutors provided the time he was supposed to face using established guidelines The judge has to assign the time. She can go 9 years or anything lower she chooses. We do not know how much time Stone will serve for 7 counts of lying to congress and witness intimidation. The court knows of hundreds. or perhaps thousands of emails between Stone and Wikileaks.
He was found guilty by a jury. We do not know what his sentence will be. It was never likely for 9 years. He is not poor.
