what he needs? what? while on probation he needs a job. Free money won't change personality. Job can do that. someone who is responsible for him now while he is on probations should find him a job... and he needs to apoligize for people who tried to help him.

Wow, I know ppl that have gone to jail for 5 years because they stole a bike. This guy stole 400k, y’all tripping if this doesn’t stink to high hell! Fuck the Judicial System!

Not 5 years of homelessness?
