Title: Starcraft: BW - Matchfixing Pros Sentenced
Post by: Kilizion on October 22, 2010, 03:35:25 pm

From TL, pretty ridiculous sentences.

So, the sentencing occurred today in Korea (the 22nd). Basically, they have a week to appeal the sentences. Out of the people who got sentenced, those of interest are

Progamer (T)Justin - 18 month sentence, 3 years suspended sentence, 3 million won fine, 120 hours of community service, 40 hours of gambling treatment program.
Progamer (Z)sAviOr - 1 year sentence, 2 year suspended sentence, 120 hours of community service.
Ex Progamer (T)By.1st - 6 month sentence, 1 year suspended sentence, 40 hours of gambling treatment program
Ex Progamer (Z)ShinHwA - 6 months sentence, 1 year suspended sentence, 40 hours of gambling treatment program

Note on "suspended sentence": If they don't screw up within that time period, they actually don't end up going to jail, and they count that you have served your sentence after that period is over.

The other progamers who were involved were let off with a fine, iirc. I don't know if there was anything past that, but since I haven't seen anything regarding them, I assume that is true.
