"Show me a case where a hacker has served more than 5 years in the US"

Show me a case where a hacker has hacked into all the places Gary did and saw all the things he did. And where laws are CHANGED and made RETROACTIVE in a country by TRAITOROUS politicians to allow the hacker to be extradited, WITHOUT evidence of a crime being presented at his extradition trial, to a foreign country. Nothing about Gary's case is run-of-the-mill.

He is facing an exceptionally extreme and illegal set of circumstances. People are committing treason to get him over to the States! Gary will be lucky if the plane he gets sent over on doesn't crash into the Atlantic.

No-one goes to all the trouble that the US/UK authorities have over a simple hacking case. The fact that they have gone to such lengths (changing laws, ignoring centuries old principles of law, committing treason, etc) shows that what he saw - or may have seen, as you don't believe he saw anything that he claims to - is obviously the reason they have gone to such extremes. His actions rattled them. They are not going to give him the usual punishment any other hacker might get.
