> I have. He's seemingly a intelligent guy with some personality issues that have gotten him into trouble. I hope he takes time during his sentence to seek help because he seemingly has more to offer the world than trolling and unethical professional behavior.

Good point. Let's leave it at that because him helping the world is all that really matters.

Wouldn't you agree that his childish behavior is a response to the unfair reporting he received? Some people can actually see through that behavior and find more about the truth[1][2]. Would you like to receive thousands of calls every day? death threats? being told that you are are responsible for killing children in Africa? You see that he's smart and mature yet you focus on his OBVIOUS childish acting.

Yeah. A little hand waving is fine by me.

Because I do not grant people an excuse for acting like a child because other people are acting childish towards them.

That entire line of reasoning is itself childish.

Legalities aside, being smart does not excuse childish behavior. Being smart is not an excuse and it is ridiculous to lower the bar for smart people.
