All the victims had to travel all the way back to court and relive their traumas by reading their victim impact statements again. More crying, more emotions. Hell, I'd even say this retrial is re-victimizing the victims.

Of course they were on edge waiting for a decision like this to be announced in the courtroom. So when it's spoken, it results in another emotional moment for the victims. More crying. Okay, so they won the criminal case against him again. But there was that civil lawsuit they had against him too, remember?

Okay, so they won the criminal case against him again. But there was that civil lawsuit they had against him too, remember?

Well, when Christopher saw that he was likely going to lose that civil lawsuit, he filed for bankruptcy to avoid having to pay any fines or restitution that would be part of that suit. The sisters won that case, but since he had filed for bankruptcy, they didn't get any money, which really wasn't the point.

The sisters won that case, but since he had filed for bankruptcy, they didn't get any money, which really wasn't the point.

The point of that case was just to give them the ability to gather evidence and to figure out who was behind this. But still, all this actually came to a big financial cost to the sisters. There were expensive lawyer fees. They had to travel to court to give victim impact statements. There were costs associated to getting subpoenas and opening a civil suit. And that's just a legal cost.

How much time did they spend investigating this? Doesn't that add up to something? And, of course, how much pain and suffering was caused. This was traumatic. So they mentioned all this in the criminal case and told the judge during the sentencing, like, hey man, this has been draining to us emotionally, but also our money.

So when the judge sentenced him to 15 years, he also took all these costs into consideration.

I think that brings us to the end.

A big thank you to Madison, Christine, and Dana for coming on the show and sharing this emotional rollercoaster of a story that's so inspirational. When nobody would help them, they became their own advocate and fought back. I love that. And they fought cleanly, too. That's the thing that gets me about this story. They didn't harass him back or do any of the things that he did to them.

Instead, they trudged through the legal system to get justice. Amazing. I mentioned earlier I did an episode about Kik. That's episode 93 if you want to listen to it. If you thought this episode was awful, that one is worse. Actually, just skip that episode altogether. This episode was created by me, the Faded Raider, Jack Re-Cider. Sound design by the resurrected suspect, Andrew Merriweather.

These are true stories from the dark side of the internet. I'm Jack Recider. This is Darknet Diaries. This episode is brought to you by SpyCloud. For some people, ignorance is bliss. But for you, as a security practitioner, that's not the case.
