He’s headed to the unhappiest place on Earth.
A disgruntled former Disney World employee who hacked into menus at the park’s restaurants to say foods were safe for people with allergies to eat when they weren’t was handed a stiff sentence and a nearly $700,000 fine.
Prosecutors said Michael Scheuer of Winter Garden, Florida, manipulated “allergen information in restaurant menus to indicate that food items were safe for customers with certain allergies, when they were not.”
In another bizarre twist, Scheuer, who investigators said was retaliating against Disney after he was fired for unspecified “misconduct,” changed menu information related to wine regions so it looked like they were sourced from the scenes of mass shootings.
Scheurer was sentenced to three years in prison, given a $687,776.50 fine and was forced to turn over his computer to investigators.
