He might be out (it was a seven year sentence and that was five years ago), but if he is, there isn't word anywhere to that effect.

and if anyone wants an update. epoch tried to get a Reduced Sentence due to covid in 2020. but was denied. and the court files show it’s a pretty messed up crime he did commit.
Also all i will say is once he is out of jail. he can Not use or possess devices which can communicate data via modem or dedicated connection and may not have access to the Internet without prior approval from the court or the probation officer. The offender shall consent to the installation of systems that will enable the probation officer to monitor computer use on any computer owned or controlled by the offender.

forgot to add. Upon release from imprisonment, the defendant shall be on supervised release for a term of:
EIGHT (8) YEARS.
