Gary McKinnon
Gary McKinnon is a man who was very interested in UFOs and aliens. He thought that the United States government was hiding some secrets about them. So, he decided to try and hack into their computers to see if he could find any information.
Now, hacking into someone's computer is a big no-no. It's like trying to sneak into your friend's house without their permission. You could get into a lot of trouble for doing that.
Well, Gary did just that. He managed to get into the computers of the United States government and even NASA! He went through their files and looked for any information on aliens or UFOs. But, unfortunately for him, he got caught.
The government was not happy about what Gary had done. They said he caused a lot of damage and it cost them millions of dollars to fix it. They also said that Gary put national security at risk by hacking into their computers.
Gary was arrested and taken to court. He tried to argue that he was just looking for UFO information and didn't mean to cause any harm. But, in the end, he was found guilty of hacking and was facing a lot of jail time.
However, Gary had a lot of people supporting him. They believed that the government was just trying to cover up what he had found. They wanted him to be released and for the government to be honest about what they knew about aliens.
After many years of legal battles, Gary was not extradited to the United States from the United Kingdom thanks to public pressure and his own lawyer's appeal.
