Like any crime it depends on the country in question. Though with hacking you may be subjected to double the punishment. For example, you hack the US government but live in Ireland. Then Ireland will probably punish you but you can also be certain that the US government is going to want to extradite you for punishment there also. Some countries are very strict on hacking while others will protect their hackers - which has led to many rumours and conspiracy theories but that's a different question altogether.
Other factors will also be taking into account, such as was it just some guy sitting in his bedroom doing it so he could brag to his mates, or was it somebody trying to rob a bank or hack FBI for secret documents. The punishment for accessing United States government files is 7 years in federal prison and fines and for deleting these files 10 years in prison and fines. These fines can be in the millions.
