Lulzsec’s Jeremy Hammond Denied Bail for the Lulz
Anarcho-hacker Jeremy Hammond, in jail for attacks on Stratfor and other related crimes was denied bail because he is a flight risk. Not having any money of his own because of his antisocial personality, his parents and relatives put of a few of their homes as bail money to get this asswipe out of prison in time for the holidays, but the judge said nope.

Jeremy Hammond denied bail before NYC hacking trial chicagotribune.com/business/break…

A New York judge has refused to grant bail to a Chicago man charged in a conspiracy to hack into corporations and government agencies worldwide.
Federal Judge Loretta Preska says Jeremy Hammond poses “a very substantial danger to the community.” She rejected arguments by his lawyers Tuesday that he be freed on bail secured by houses owned by relatives.
Hammond has been held since his March arrest. The judge says he has demonstrated a lack of respect for court orders and a sophisticated ability to get into databases online and obtain information including credit card numbers.
Hammond has pleaded not guilty in website attacks the government says were carried out by the loosely organized worldwide hacking group Anonymous.
This little guy is delusional and thinks he is a one-man terrorist cyberforce. His 2004 masked onstage DefCon diatribe was greeted with boos and hisses, and I think its absolutely lulzy that he is going to miss out on a tasty turkey dinner tomorrow.
Some supporters, including his bleeding-heart Mom are outraged that a hacker is in jail:
