Hacker Gary McKinnon Vegetarian, Pacifist According To Friends

Gary McKinnon, also known as SOLO, has been accused of hacking into several military computers, including the Army, Navy, and Pentagon, as well as NASA computers.
The Scottish ex systems administrator who was involved in what has been called the “biggest military computer hack of all time,” faces extradition to the U.S. to be tried for the crimes.
Friends and family say McKinnon doesn’t belong in the harsh prison system, his stepfather describing him as a “gentle guy,” and a pacifist who also happens to be vegetarian.
His mother said, “He loves to cook vegetarian food. He is so precise. Each mushroom has to be cut to exactly the same size.”
McKinnon has been diagnosed with a form of autism by famed psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen and it’s thought the syndrome, which often is marked by isolated focus and obsessiveness, played a role in McKinnon’s alleged criminal behavior.
