Ок, Jon Pretty выиграл суд против подписантов открытого письма коммьюнити против него (основанного на обвинении Jon'а третьими лицами). Прочитав документ из суда, можно заключить только это. Суд не вынес решение о том, не виновен он или виновен, это не было предметом процесса.

Those of us who are well known within the community directly profit and benefit from our renown. Perhaps that's a bit gouche to say, but it's true and it shouldn't be surprising. But along with these benefits comes greater accountability: we represent and to a large extent shape the Scala community, and thus the expectations for behavior are higher and the burden of proof is lower. The community is not a court of law, nor should it be expected to be. Jon based his career on his standing within the community, and he also chose to leverage that standing in coercive ways, and the evidence already in existence is sufficient to act within the context of that community. ...
