Prison just got rougher as band of heinously violent cybercrims sentenced to lengthy stints

The report details the U.S. Department of Justice’s sentencing of Remy Ra St Felix and accomplices for a multi-year spree of cryptocurrency-targeted crimes beginning in 2020, escalating from SIM-swapping to violent home invasions, kidnappings, and armed robberies in several states. The gang researched victims, used an encrypted messaging app to coordinate, and stole millions in crypto and valuables, with incidents including torture and threats; St Felix received 47 years in prison and significant restitution orders were imposed on multiple co-conspirators.
