Nintendo ‘hacker’ out from prison early due to good behavior
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
We heard in February 2022 that Gary Bowser, someone who has been painted as a hacker at Team Xecuter, was sentenced to 40 months of prison. However, it turns out that he’s about to be released early due to good behavior (plus the time already served).
Bowser will be sent home to Canada. While that’s all well and good, there’s a good chance he’ll be paying for the rest of his life. Bowser was sentenced to pay $10 million, which he’ll most certainly be unable to meet.
