Buying a Spot in Prison with a Stolen Card

May 5, 2006 by patrick.ogenstad

This is just sad, according to this article a guy is facing one to two years in jail for hacking. He got caught stealing credit card information and ordering goods which he shipped to his home address. I have two theories of what happened.

  1. He is so stupid he deserves jail time for that too along with his other crime.
  2. He has a brother in jail and has seen Prison Break, now he is about to free his brother.

I think I favor the stupidity theory, to make the prison stay a bit more comfortable I’ll just go ahead and recommend this colorful wallpaper to decorate the cell.
