And he is probably at home now, waiting for when the trial starts, they held him in for interigation for a couple of days and will let him go after that, since he is no danger to others.
They won't keep him in prison before the trial on a case like this.
I guess he will get a sentence for some comunity work for 150 hours and a financial fine probably.

Given I have read this guy ripped off over 13 million Euro, I doubt he'd get community service, even in Holland. And frankly, without going into too much detail, this guy wasn't that great a hacker. He mostly relied on deception to get leaked versions of games, not any elite hacking skill.

maximum sentence for fraude is 3-4 years here, if it''s a first time offense there is no way he will get the max.
even murderers go out with 4 years here
but we will see, I just want to show you that you can not compare it to the sentences in the US

i think community service is highly likely while possibly staying grounded to only use say his own computer. Which will then be monitored . TBH i don't see why he should be locked up in a prison prisons only cost money, just let him work to pay back a dept, and monitor what he does over the internet.

Hang about, didn't this guy relive common people of their hard earned savings with a credit card scam ?

Allegedly, yes, he was indulging in credit card scams. If he was, put the bugger away, please

Sexual assault, anything from 2 months up, circumstances dependant. Destroying many lives beyond repair in the process.
Stealing money from banks, at least one year with possible 2 years probation and / or psychologic treatment.
Hacking and credit card fraud, common sentences are five years in prison.
Corporations and banks value money more than humans.

Hm deception? I don't really see much crime here. The est. damage is industrywise totally unrealistic. Sorry to say but I would give him a year or two at max.

The guys spent millions of Euros from ripped off credit credit cards. And you don't see much crime? Thats not even estimated damages, that is REAL money the guy spent. And yes, delays of games and leaked games cost the industry millions. I can calculate almost exactly how much money this guy cost TWI (although I wouldn't announce it publicly). But if he caused our small company that much cost, I can easily see the losses for large companies running into the millions.

It's good to see people like that receive consequences. It's sad that people waste such skills on stuff like that.
