Not sure why the justice does even bother with people like this.

There's real criminals to prosecute. Why help some large company like twitter get rid of some annoyance?

Sparky Herring was swatted and it led to his death via heart attack, all because he wouldn't sell his desirable twitter handle to exactly this sort of scumbag.

Sparky was an old school dev responsible for writing software that was critical during the BBS era. A true computing pioneer.
