    A hacker named Adrian Kwiatkowski has been sent to 18 months in prison in the U.K. for stealing and selling Lil Uzi Vert and Ed Sheeran’s unreleased music for $147,000 in cryptocurrency, according to NBC News.

    “Kwiatkowski had complete disregard for the musicians’ creativity and hard work producing original songs and the subsequent loss of earnings,” Joanne Jakymec, a prosecutor in London, stated. “He selfishly stole their music to make money for himself.”

    Per a report released by the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), Kwiatkowski learned his fate on Friday (October 21).

    “She called me every day… Even if she called to argue with me, she called me every day and that’s what counted.”

    “I don’t even know how I feel,” he continued. “I got close over a short span of time. Just her loyalty, like, she showed me a different type of loyalty… She’d never let anyone get up near me.”

    “Anything she could do for me, she would do it. Just feeling something different, especially knowing I’m older than her so she was my little homie.”

    Desto was only 24 at the time of her demise. It’s reported that a male assailant approached Desto’s car and opened fire. She shot back but unfortunately she was fatally hit.
