Gabriel March Granados 1972 1 million  Spain March, a 22-year-old mailman in Palma de Mallorca, has occasionally been mentioned (sometimes erroneously as "Granados" or "Grandos") as the person sentenced to the longest prison term ever. He failed to deliver 42,784 letters, opening 35,718 of them and stealing their contents for value of 50,000 euro (2010 value). In consequence, March was charged with thousands of counts of fraud, wrongful appropriation of documents (one per undelivered letter) and theft, resulting in an unprecedented request of 384,912 years in prison and a 19-million-euro (2010 value) fine by the prosecutor. However, the judge refused to sentence him to almost a million years. So, the actual sentence imposed was 14 years and 2 months in prison and a fine of 9,000 pesetas (1972 value) and was released after the years.[136][137]
