As He keeps treated with kid gloves, he fails to recognise the seriousness of the situation he's in. A life of privilege does this to people because people in privilege just get all the understanding and benefit of the doubt and when they are nailed, they get a slap on the wrist. It's just how it is, the examples are endless but from a recent popular culture, you can make though experiment about someone of privilege attempting to poison someone at school v.s. someone off privilege doing the same. When the thing is high profile enough and tightly put into the system they will end up getting the legal punishment but the process for them is way way less painful. Cross a border illegally? you sleep on the ground alone, covered with foil blanked for months in a detention center, you final punishment might not be something very high but your process is painful. You defraud people, go after them and, harass them and if you get caught you are surrounded with people sympathetic to you, trying to make sure that you don't have a time of hardship other than you are legally required. The final punishment can be something like living for many years in a highly secure building with no personal schedule and access to the rest of the society but at no point you suffer beyond that. You also get lot's of people around you trying to make sure that you will live in that building as less as possible. IMHO He will not grasp the seriousness of his situation until everything is over and starts feeling some pain when he has some brilliant idea about crypto or something but he is locked up and can't pursue it.
