Well hopefully this turns into a helpful public service in the end since she didn't try to sell them or use them for fraud. So most will probably just get fixed, again I hope.

But she was basically asking to go to jail and this could have easily gotten her some good money if she reported it responsibly. Either as an infosec worker or through vuln rewards programs.

Hopefully she has foiled a malware attack or two in her past. Otherwise it’s not looking good for her future.

She doesn’t sound like the most... neurotypical, and US courts really hate that.
