Adrian Lamo Pleads Guilty

darth dickinson writes "InfoWorld reports that Adrian Lamo, the so-called 'homeless hacker,' pleaded guilty on Thursday to charges that he broke into the internal computer network of The New York Times. The 22-year-old could face up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine at a sentencing hearing in April." From the sound of things, he just wants to pay his debt to society and put this behind him. It'll be interesting to see if the judge sticks to the suggested sentence or not.

I would what happens to hackers in prison.

Somebody tell Lamo to make sure he kicks someone's ass the first day in, or else the other inmates will think he is weak and make him their bitch.
