The Public Ministry of the State of S\u00e3o Paulo alleged shAy helped run an online retail store, failing to deliver on promises to customers to deliver goods. The court heard reports from 118 victims, who were allegedly scammed from 2013-2017. shAy retired from pro play in May 2019 after an 11-year career spanning across CS 1.6 to Global Offensive. She started streaming full-time, often playing CS:GO and GTA V to her 30,000 followers on Twitch. shAy has defended herself after being convicted, releasing a statement to Brazilian news site UOL, through her lawyer, about the court\u2019s findings. \u201cshAy is now the target of defamation on the internet, with people creating fake pages to attack her, simply for the purpose of gossip and malevolence,\u201d said lawyer Ant\u00f4nio Carneiro, according to a translation. Anunciamos a sa\u00edda da @shaycsgo, que decidiu pendurar o mouse e encerrar sua carreira no cen\u00e1rio profissional. Uma das pioneiras no cen\u00e1rio e parte da nossa primeira line, ela sempre ser\u00e1 uma Guerreira honor\u00e1ria \ud83d\udc9c Uma honra ter sido sua \u00faltima casa nessa longa jornada. #ByeShay pic.twitter.com\/dXAY2sIK6j\u2014 Vivo Keyd Stars (@VivoKeyd) May 13, 2019 \u201cWe will appeal against the sentence that we consider inhumane, awaiting a new decision and under the guise of the principle of innocence, as it can only be someone found guilty, when the sentence is final.\u201d shAy mentioned that her partner at the time took full responsibility for the crimes, and that it \u201cdoesn\u2019t fit in\u201d with how she acts. \u201cI work with my image, I do live broadcasts daily, I am known in my field, I have a physical address. It does not fit in with what is being judged out there,\u201d she said on Instagram, according to a translation. Brazil\u2019s law dictates that a person can only be jailed for 30 years for a single crime, even if the court finds the crime to be worthy of a harsher punishment. If shAy\u2019s appeal is unsuccessful, she will be free in 2050.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former CSGO pro shAy sentenced to 116 years for embezzelment Instagram: shaycsgoFormer Brazilian CSGO pro Shayene \u2018shAy\u2019 Victorio has reportedly been sentenced to 116 years in jail after being convicted of larceny and embezzlement charges relating to a business she and her ex-partner ran during 2013-2017. shAy, who was active in CS:GO from 2008-2019 and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-38297","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38297","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38297"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38297\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38297"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=38297"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=38297"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
