Carl Rinsch has been sentenced to more than two years in prison for scamming Netflix out of $11m (£8.2m) despite Keanu Reeves writing a letter asking a judge for leniency.
Rinsch, 48, was found guilty of wire fraud and money laundering in December 2025 after appearing to squander millions of dollars given to him by Netflix in 2018 to make a 12-episode series titled White Horse, later renamed Conquest.
