Did Ian Brown Get A Raw Deal When He Was Sentenced To Prison?

He was given a 4 month prison sentence, but Peter Buck & Liam Gallagher got off free for similar offenses.
Ian Brown
In 1998, he was sentenced to 4 months in jail for air rage, after a threatening of a stewardess with plastic cutlery, offering to cut her hands off on a flight.
Peter Buck
On April 21, 2001, Buck was aboard a transatlantic flight from Seattle to London to play a concert at Trafalgar Square. Witnesses alleged that Buck exhibited various bizarre behaviors on the flight, including shoving a CD into a drinks trolley thinking it was a CD player, tearing up the “yellow card” warning notice handed to him by the flight crew, claiming “I am R.E.M.” and being involved in a struggle over a yogurt pot with two stewards, which resulted in the exploding of the pot. Buck’s actions led to two charges of common assault on the stewards, one charge of being drunk whilst on a plane, and one charge of damaging British Airways cutlery.
Liam Gallagher
After an incident of air rage (apparently over a scone) on a flight to Australia, Gallagher was banned for life from Cathay Pacific airlines. Gallagher claimed he would “rather walk”
