The assumption was that he was released/not put into jail while the case on him was ongoing. The 50 charges against him were between 2018-2021, meaning that he would have developed SO while fully aware that he was gonna land behind bars sometime in the future.
Whether or not he has continued the related crimes between 2021-2023, not really sure.
He recently "disappeared" in the discord around the same time he appeared in court, as well his name matching, DOB, and selfies.
I could elaborate further if you have any more questions about it.
