Twitter Hack Mastermind Serving Time
According to a report by the Tampa Bay Times, Clark pleaded guilty to the Twitter hack that happened last summer at a virtual court hearing held on Tuesday, March 16th, 2021, in Florida. Following a deal struck with prosecutors, the 18-year old teenager would serve a three-year jail term and three years probation.
Clark, who faced 30 charges, was sentenced as a “youthful offender” according to an agreement, thereby avoiding the minimum 10-year sentence. Meanwhile, Clark could serve some of his sentence in a boot camp.
As part of the plea deal, Clark would grant unlimited access to any accounts he owns by giving up his passwords. Also, the accused would be prohibited from using electronic gadgets without the permission and supervision of law enforcement officials.
