Senior VP of Sony's Interactive Entertainment Division (SIE) was fired immediately after a video was allegedly revealed that he intended to commit a pedophilia act. George Kachiupo, an engineer who worked, among other things, on the PlayStation Store online And on other projects since 2013, has been indicted using a sting drill on the net.
• For equal operations in the field of computing and technology
People v.
Preds, an independent organization that aims to document pedophiles on hot and expose their activities, has uploaded a video in which Kachiapo is seen dealing with accusations that he invited a 15-year-old boy to his home to have sex with.
Kachiapo is documented leaving his home in the middle of the night, wearing a PlayStation 5 shirt, to meet the boy, who turned out to be a person on behalf of the organization who contacted him online to incriminate him.
Caution: The video is not easy to watch.
According to the organization, Kachiupo spoke to the same "boy" on the dating app Grinder, claiming his name was Jeff.
Screenshots of the conversation between the two were also circulated, and further evidence was provided to police.
It should be noted that immediately upon the publication of the affair, Sony wasted no time.
The company fired Kachiupo immediately and released a brief statement in which it declared that it was "aware of the situation, and the work of the person suspected of the acts was stopped".
This is not the first time in recent times that Sony's interactive entertainment division has faced an unpleasant affair.
Just about a week ago, a former employee accused the console maker of gender discrimination and unjustified dismissal.
Although the two cases are unrelated, they certainly cast a heavy shadow over the technology and entertainment giant.
