Director Rinsch Sentenced for Netflix Fraud | San Antonio News

Hollywood director Carl Rinsch is headed to prison for two and a half years after being convicted of defrauding Netflix out of $11 million—money allegedly funneled into luxury cars, watches, and even $630K mattresses. Despite claims of mental health struggles and medication issues, the judge dismissed those as excuses for “naked greed,” noting Rinsch lied to get and cover up the cash. Even Keanu Reeves, a friend of Rinsch’s, penned a letter pleading for mercy, praising his creativity and warmth—though admitting he could self-sabotage. Rinsch’s lawyers are already planning an appeal, while Netflix remains silent. He’s scheduled to report to prison in September. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
