Johnny Somali has been sentenced to prison with labor in South Korea, according to Dexerto. A judge in South Korea sentenced Somali on Tuesday, April 14, after he was found guilty of all charges.
The prosecution recommended three years behind bars with hard labor for Somali, which made his mother file a petition, asking for leniency.
Somali is facing four charges of interference of business, two charges for violating the Minor Crimes Act, and two charges of sexual violence crimes.
He is accused of having streamed himself playing offensive noises on the subway, including speeches by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, and performing lap dances on a memorial that commemorates Korea’s World War II sex slaves.
Somali opened up about the case in an appearance in court last month, arguing that what he did would not have gotten him in legal trouble in the United States.
