| | Although the confessions obtained from the preliminary interrogations and at the public show trial were not very convincing, the 18 defendant were found guilty and sentenced to terms of 5 to 10 years of imprisonment. | | | One particularly effective threat used by NKVD after April 1935 was the reminder that the death penalty could be legally applied to children from ''traitors''' families down to the age of 12. | | | Three of the defendants received sentences of 15 to 25 years; the others, including Bukharin, Rykov, and Iagoda, were sentenced to death. |

| | By the terms of the decree of April 7, 1935, children over twelve years of age who had formerly been exempt from the death penalty and dispatched to juvenile correction camps were now to be tried under the general penal code. | | | While erring Communists could hardly hope to appeal their sentences, the state had great latitude in revisiting the sentencing process. | | | In October 1932, the GPU collegium sentenced Riutin, the leader of a short-lived opposition to collectivization, to ten years in prison. |
