Suspects, Professor Denis Evans and colleagues at the Research School of Chemistry at the Australian National University, allegedly used lasers to suspend small beads and violate this storied law, enjoyed by fervent engineers and illogical creationists alike. Although this law is so fundamental, I suggest no more than 100 hours community service if the suspects are apprehended, since it is their first offense and only involved small systems at small timeframes.
If the behavior continues, or others try to reproduce the act, I would support a harsher sentence to deter this crime.
In other legal news, the golden rule has already been broken about 1.6 billion times today. I'm still voting to turn the other cheek to these, but do note the increased frequency of violations.
