Robinson pretty much risked justice for the victims in order to raise his own profile and it's disgusting and I hope he gets those two years.

He could plead ignorance, which many would agree is probably true.
I didn't know it was illegal to film outside courthouses - I'd probably guess that it is if the question came up, but I never knew it offhand. Robinson just probably didn't know it was illegal, and if he knew the possible repercussions for the victims he probably wouldn't have done it.
