Two things I find hard to believe: 1. That guy isn't in prison? 2. That guy convinced someone to invest in his venture?

He went to prison in Japan and served his term.

He didn’t go to prison.

He was sentenced on March 19, 2019 to 30 months in prison, suspended for four years, meaning he will serve no time unless he commits additional offenses before March 19, 2023.
