Alleged hacker pleads guilty in TJX case
As part of a plea-bargaining arrangement, Christopher Scott, 25, of Miami, has admitted to computer hacking, access device fraud and identity theft, according to the Associated Press. He could face a sentence of up to 22 years in jail and a fine of up to $1m (£538,000).
The plea comes almost two weeks after Damon Patrick Toey pleaded guilty to his role. The 11 defendants were formally charged last month. Three are from the US, one from Estonia, three from the Ukraine, two from China, and one from Belarus. Another man involved used an alias and his whereabouts are unknown.
