Gaines on behalf of the LA Times is saying that defacing the news website was an attack on the fourth estate
Gaines says there's already a problem with ascertaining what is real news, defacing a credible news organization's site is a real threat
"We are one of the few points of stability on the web... for our industry it’s crucial that we be a beacon in a confusing world."
Wrap-up arguments.
When pressed to give recommendation based on guidelines range the court came up with, prosecutor recommends 42 month sentence
"We have not gone overboard on this case and a midrange recommendation doesn’t go overboard either."
Concedes that 36 month sentence is also reasonable. Prosecutor is basically hoping for *any* prison time now.
Prosecutor: "This wasn’t mischief. This was rage driven by profound narcissism."
"This is not just a prank. We might be talking about a prank if this were sharpie’s sentencing. I think prank captures what sharpie did."
"The only thing that limited his crime was that sharpie didn’t want to hurt the LA Times as much as Keys did."
Leiderman now
The still unknown individual who actually defaced the LAT website using Keys's login https://twitter.com/bendreyfuss/status/720350547048599552 …
Leiderman: "The government gives Matthew Keys way too much credit in his ability to influence public discourse"
Leiderman is now defending Matthew Keys's tweets since the verdict
(Prosecutor said that Keys had attacked the jury system itself).
Defense: "This belief that this is a targeting of journalists is a belief he is entitled to have… this isn’t an attack on the jury…"
Leiderman is comparing Samberg sharing his HBO password as a joke to what Keys did.
Going into the CFAA now. "Congress is regressive not progressive, and in fact they are completely inactive nowadays."
"Although there have been proposals for remediation, no action has been taken."
"The CFAA is a buggy law... with that, the punishments do not fit the crime."
Says that prosecution cannot ask Keys to apologize given that they are seeking a potentially ground-breaking appeal on CFAA grounds.
One of these cases might go to the Supreme Court, "why not us?"
Prosecution and defense disagree as to what role Keys played at Fox 40. Prosecutor says "site admin," defense says "content provider"
Judge say, "He was hired as a social media… wunderkind."
Says Keys was an immature 22 year old and has grown up since.
Defense: "Not only is his record clean, but in the interceding 5 ½ years when he’s grown up into a 29 year old he hasn’t done anything."
Keys has lost his 20s, the best years of his life. And perhaps a chunk of his 30s.
Judge: "I think the parties agree, it’s not the crime of the century."
lmao now Leiderman is talking about phone phreaking and Jobs and Wozniak
oh my god
