⚠️John “Lick” (@evil) is dealing with some very serious charges.

It’s the usual cybercrime lineup, just scaled up with bigger numbers and higher stakes:

• Wire fraud
• theft of government property
• Money laundering
• Conspiracy

If John pleads guilty, shows remorse and returns the remaining of the stolen funds this could mean 15–30 years.
acting hostile and refusing to return the remaining funds could push it to around 50.
