Damn, he should have just become a banker and steal billions from taxpayers. Then he'd get a bonus.
Now seriously, that seems way too harsh of a sentence... That alone would be reason not to extradite him.

I know, 60 years in jail for a guy who has a medical condition and that they cant prove did any damage or anything, apparently (according to BBC news channel) if he had been tried here, he would have been given 6 months community service...not to mention of course that the extradition treaty essentialy allows the US to extradite people from the UK, but not vice versa.
|
That's not true.
Also the "6 months community service" is more or less a lie. It would be that way only because he didn't break into UK government computers.
|
thats how it was reported here...
also, that doesnt make it a lie, it makes it only true if the UK citizen is tried by the UK legal system.
|
Actually, that's still a lie.
Because he broke into 97 computers.
And the 6 month sentence is only for one hacking attempt.
Additionally the UK has no right to try someone for a lesser crime when a more serious crime was committed by the act elsewhere.
|
more serious crime was still commited in the UK by a UK citizen though, so whats your point?
and the UK isnt responsible for the security of US computer systems...turn this around and FUCK ALL would happen, the US would block any attempt at extradition or harsher sentencing and you know it...

No... we wouldn't actually. Once we found someone was guilty of the crime, we would send them over.
