US considers the cases concerning Jetflicks to be the largest of their kind
A programmer at the heart of a huge internet piracy website faces a lengthy prison sentence following five years of legal proceedings and a two-week trial.

Vaillant was one of eight individuals indicted back in 2019 for playing a key role in Jetflicks' success, including two other, Darryl Polo and Luis Villarino.
