Facing possible jail in Texas isn't exactly a price being paid, is it?
Compromising PII is a hipaa violation, that isn’t taken lightly anywhere. He may not get the full 10 years but he will be slapped for this.
What I mean is even if he was facing the death penalty or 1 billion years in prison, he hasn't paid, has he. The penalty has been added to cart.
Tangent: I have no faith in the American justice system, much less in any red state's "justice" system. He'll get slapped...on the wrist...using some mental gymnastics about whistleblowers or something like that.
