According to this: http://www.wnyc.org/shows/newtechcity/2013/feb/12/computer-fraud-and-abuse-act-it-too-broad/ Weev is to be sentenced on 25 Feb, I have verified this on PACER to be 10:30 am: The Weev case is very important to Great Justice, and myself since I was convicted under the same statute. Other courts have found it vague. One case was filed with the SCOTUS but was withdrawn. Anyone know if Weev gonna take this all the way to the Supreme Court?
I will be in SF on the 23 for some event to protest Bradley Manning. I will be there with a Free Weev sign.
This. I've said the same elsewhere. He bit off more than he bargained for. Anyone expecting leniency is just hopelessly optimistic.
Unless he has somehow managed to bring Johnny Cochran back from the dead, I don't think he's going to fair so well. He's managed to do the equivalent of willingly stepping into a boxing ring with Mike Tyson. I'm not sure I can muster up any sympathy for an error of that magnitude. I'll TRY, but goddamn, it's going to be hard.
Yeah, conventional wisdom dictates they'd want to make an example out of him. I'd be down for baking a file into a cake for him though. Or something. At least he's not going to Russian jail.
Are you kidding? He's white, short, and slender. HE'S GOING TO GET PASSED AROUND LIKE A CAN OF PRINGLES. I'll pour one out for your anus, Weev.
to be fair weev is to ugly to be a prison bitch,what will happen is he'll open his ugly fucking mouth and get the shit kicked out of him and stabbed.
Depends if he gets Club Fed as a prison. A minimum Security Fed Prison is pretty Good. Enjoyable even. It's not like he's being sent to Big State.
this is actually true but it still depends on the Federal prison. some of thous prisons are gladiator schools. if he keeps his mouth shut and does not start any trouble he'll being hanging cool at club fed,if not then weev is a dead man and will be sent to a harder prison.
I don't know, man. Something tells me that with that head of hair and dem big ole lips, some of the more ethnic prisoners are going to take one look at him and this.
he's got a big mouth and he's weak and easy to pass around so it's settled then. he's going to get the shit kicked out of him and raped and probable be made into a prison gopher to smuggle drugs after his asshole gets to big to hold anybody's dick. if he's lucky maybe the neo Nazis will just let him be a prison punk and he can make some money for them fuck the more well off crackers, nigger and spics.
I'm no expert in the mysterious ways of the law, so I can only guess what happens. Since AT&T essentially owns him already, wouldn't they be able to slide the judge a note say "Put this dude somewhere where he's going to get some cock"?
lol. no. Actually the Defendant has more authority to determine where he will end up - he can specifically request certain areas. My buddy works as a Fed Guard at Chicago (he knew all about the escape last month). Chicago has a pretty tough prison. He says that people choose it to be closer to their families, but know that it sucks. It is a "Federal Pound Me In The Ass Prison". "Club Fed" is a term to describe resorts like Federal Correctional Complex, Butner
Requests can be denied. In a hilarious twist of fate, what if the judge happens to be kin to some retard that weev trolled into oblivion?
Prison is generally for people who serve 4-5+ years from what I know, jail is for shorter sentences, so I guess it depends on the time he gets and like you mentioned, where he is sent. Prison = Assrape Jail = Asswhoopin
That could be true. One of the Judges on my case has a Wife who is a Board Director of AT&T : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynn_Morley_Martin He has had conflict in cases with AT&T. He usually recuses himself. Usually the Clerk of Court will automatically filter any Judge with ties/stock to a corporation. In one case this did not happen because AT&T was added later to the lawsuit. The Judge presided in a Motion to Add AT&T as a Party. He denied it, it was appealed because of conflict of interest. The Appellate Court ruled that the Judge should have recused himself but it did not matter because the motion to add AT&T as a party was untimely and properly denied. TL; DR The judges are required to disclose conflicts, if they don't its a possible issue that may warrant a new trial.
well,the judge is black and he named his trolling group the gay niggers from outer space. weev is a raped man for sure.
I will not be in SF protesting for bradley manning with a "Free Weev" sign, but doing that in the sticks where there is a protest happening. I will try to get pix.
bump. sentencing was today. http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2013/03/att-hacker-gets-3-years/ the correct answer is 3.5 years, 2 years probation, and $73,000 in restitution. congratulations to the winners
Glad Weev got off (kind of) easy. 3.5 years prison+2 years probation+$73k restitution isn't that bad compared to what other hackers have gotten, he'll probably spend it in a Club Fed instead of Leavenworth or Marion.
