- alasdair_ 7y agoThe guy is 41 years old and lives with his parents in the same bedroom he had as a kid. He has never been able to perform basic tasks like doing his own laundry or otherwise properly caring for himself. In addition, he spent essentially none of the money - the court case is clear on that point - and he was vulnerable enough that all of the funds were taken from him by fraudsters.
