Guy who hacked Scarlett Johansson's nude pics could face 121 years in jail

OMG! dat mor den MURDERERERS!!1!

The could in the title is the same as I could die of a meteor strike today. Good lord, some of you are easily riled.

[QUOTE="surrealnumber5"]

[QUOTE="dagreenfish"] I think there actually was theft. Dude, took the pictures and I read somewhere that other information may have been taken as well. I'd consider that theft.dagreenfish

[QUOTE="dagreenfish"][QUOTE="surrealnumber5"] theft is when a material good is lost, she lost nothing, the other person may have gained but she lost nothing.

surrealnumber5

The pictures are worth every single year. :P

Really 121 years,they couldn't just fine him Bucked20

He's not going to get 121 years. He could get 121 years, in theory. But that isn't going to happen.

[QUOTE="surrealnumber5"]

[QUOTE="dagreenfish"] Not sure if that is legally true or not. Such as intellectual property and such. The original owner still hasn't physically lost anything, but it's still considered theft. dagreenfish

[QUOTE="dagreenfish"][QUOTE="surrealnumber5"] you need state licensing to protect your personal information under IP laws, like when fred dirts sued tyrone norris for posting his sex tape,, fred got his vid copyrighted expose facto and was able to sue for millions, also illegal to sue people expose facto but when has the law ever gotten in the way of suing people you dont like.

surrealnumber5

It's not going to be effectively ended. He isn't going to get 121 years. He'll do a few years at the most.

[QUOTE="surrealnumber5"]

[QUOTE="dagreenfish"] First, I'd like to express my horror that Fred durst had a sex tape *shudder*. So if somebody hacks into a persons computer/ phone whatever and steals private and personal info, the victim has no legal recourse to address the theft unless they copyright their private info? Not doubting the legal precendent, but still seems like theft to me. *shrug*worlock77

I think he should be given a medal or something....what he did was a gift

**** him. He's a hacker. I hate losers like that.metallica_fan42

You must sure hate your goverment aswell then.

Nude pics = 121 years.

Baby killing = No imprisonment.

shouldn't it be peoples own fault if they take risks and have pictures of them self naked on their cell phones?

[QUOTE="surrealnumber5"] in the dirts case none of the publishers were the hacker, and they all got sued, the court system much like the other arms of the government do not know how to treat digital information in a piratical and "fair" way. there is invasion of privacy, but it could be argued that keeping your ports open in a public place shows you have an intent to share. i am conflicted on how these things should be treated but i know one thing i can stand firm on, no persons life should be effectively ended because another person is sad or mad.

It's not going to be effectively ended. He isn't going to get 121 years. He'll do a few years at the most.

Chances are he'll be convicted of a few counts, recieve less than the maximum on each count, and be ordered to serve his terms concurrently, and then get paroled when half his sentince is up. He'll do a few years and then maybe have a few years of probation once he's out.

M4Ntan

How is that their fault? If I, for some reason, leave my car unlocked in my driveway and somebody hotwires it and steals it is it my fault they stole it? Should that be a legal defense?

This doesn't seem quite right. 121 years just for showing stolen nude photos of scarlett johansson and hacking into other celebrities? If he raped and killed her then thats is understandable but our court and justice system is screwed up. Psychotic serial killers don't even get that long of a sentence.

**** him. He's a hacker. I hate losers like that.metallica_fan42

Goddamn, does nobody bother to read beyond the headline of a news story or thread?

A: Police don't prosecute crimes, the courts do.

B: If she wasn't famous the media wouldn't be reporting it. That doesn't mean he wouldn't be prosecuted.

But you know just as much as I do there's no way they'll actually give him anywhere near that amount.

Johannson wasn't the only one hacked, the sentence is supposed to be a total of charges from all the people he hacked since he hacked a few other people.

Pretty outrageous considering that if they really did give him the maximum he would probably be dead of old age before he even completed half of it.

I have to agree, I remember I was at work/in the field when I heard about it on the radio and got my phone to look them up lol.

I can see everyone in prison giving that guy a bro fist....hell I would give the guy one right now.

JUSTICE!

You can bet your ass he wouldn't be looking at 121 years though.

That's a bit ridiculous. The man who videotaped Erin Andrews in her hotel room through a peephole only got 2.5 years in prison and to me, that's far more invasive. Obviously though there is also the case of this hacker doing his thing to 50 people as opposed to 1. Ghost_702

The reason why they said 121 years is because they are totaling up the maximum amount he could get for all of his charges if they gave him the max sentence for each one and made him serve his sentence consecutively instead of concurrently. It's no different than when they bust some guy with child porn they talk about he could get thousands of years in jail because they are charging him for each picture he has and he has a crapload of them but in the end he only does a few years which doesn't even come close to the proposed sentence.

There are other guys who probably faced sentences like this before but it doesn't make the news because people want to hear about what happens to the guy that stole Scarlett's pics but could care less about the guy who stole the picks of that hot girl that works the cash register at your local Taco Bell. A few years back there was a murder trial that was famous for one reason and one reason only: Oprah Winfrey was picked as one of the jurors. If she wasn't nobody would have even heard of it.

[QUOTE="worlock77"]

[QUOTE="curono"] Perverts around the internet salute him. :lol: But seriously, this is a big shock just because she is famous. If she was a nobody police wouldn't even CARE

He is charged with something like 25 counts. That 121 years is if he's convicted on all counts, and if he's sentenced to the maximum for each count, and if he's ordered to serve each sentence consecutively, rather than concurrently (as is the usual). That's a whole lot of "if" there.

That can't be right.. 121 years?! Not like he kidnapped, tortured, raped and then brutally killed someone. Geez.. :?

it must be scarlet's way to get some extra attention.

Dude

The post right above yours explains why he's looking at so many years.

Besides, she is very attractive. She should take this as a compliment.MistressMinako

Would you take it as a compliment if you caught some peeping tom spying on your girlfriend? Or would you walk over there and procede to stomp him into the ground?

A lot of guys are glad he did what he did but it doesn't take away the fact he broke the law.

Well, don't put anything on your computer/website/etc thinking that it won't get stolen. This is as much as her fault as it is his. Besides, she is very attractive. She should take this as a compliment.MistressMinako

So I guess you'd be cool with someone getting nude photos of you and plastering them on the internet?

The justice system baffles me. Always has done, always will.

Unless you were referring to the her being attractive so it is cool portion, I was actually kidding about that. I just thought people would think I was joking, sorry.
