👏👏👏👏

The US Court should have done better than this actually. The 11 years jail term is nothing compared to the number of folks Hushpuppi has pushed into frustration and depression. In any case, this will serve as a deterrent to potential internet fraudsters.

Oh well, he went into fraud anticipating this, thank God it not 25 to life.

This is purely law of karma. What goes around comes around. Truly it's clear vanity upon vanity all is vanity. The rich of yesterday now poor of today. I wish u luck in your jailed term.

It serves him right.
