During the January 2021 Covid lockdown he gained access to his former employer&#8217;s network.<\/p>\n<p>The former IT technician&#8217;s precise method was not described in reports of the case but local police said it involved &#8220;fourteen different steps.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>His spree also affected remote-learning pupils at home as well as the school itself. Parents told Leicester Crown Court of the harm caused, including one father of three who said he had lost 1,000 family photographs. Another parent said five years of family photos and images of now-dead relatives had been lost, along with his son&#8217;s GCSE coursework, while a third said her son&#8217;s laptop had factory-reset itself &#8220;as if it was a brand new computer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Detective Constable Anthony Jones, from Leicestershire Police&#8217;s Digital Hub, was the investigating officer. After the case ended he said in a statement: &#8220;Georgeson said he went into the school&#8217;s system because he was bored and decided to start deleting things. However, he realised his actions were traceable and would be caught and so his actions became even more malicious.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Before his January 2021 arrest Georgeson was employed by Millennium Computer Services in Oakham, Rutland as an analyst. Two months later he was &#8220;asked to resign&#8221; for abusing the company credit card, as Crown prosecutor Dan Bishop told the court. Bosses then discovered email accounts had stopped working and that a vengeful Georgeson had &#8220;maliciously disrupted the computer system, including changing passwords,&#8221; preventing the company from operating for eight days.<\/p>\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"adun\" id=\"story_eagle_xsm_sm_md_xmd_lg_xlg\" data-pos=\"mid\" data-raptor=\"eagle\" data-xsm=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-sm=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-md=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-xmd=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-lg=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-xlg=\",mpu,dmpu,\">\n            <noscript><br \/>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/jump?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_offbeat\/legal&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=3&amp;c=33Ygp5enave03T7dUMU@xbIwAAAJE&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D3%26raptor%3Deagle%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><br \/>\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mailinvest.blog\/wp-content\/themes\/breek\/assets\/images\/transparent.gif\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-src=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/ad?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_offbeat\/legal&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=3&amp;c=33Ygp5enave03T7dUMU@xbIwAAAJE&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D3%26raptor%3Deagle%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" alt=\"\"\/><\/a><br \/>\n            <\/noscript>\n        <\/div>\n<p>Barrister Kevin Barry, for Georgeson, told the judge in mitigation that his client suffered from &#8220;depression and anxiety.&#8221; He had also been offered a place on a university cyber security course on the grounds that &#8220;poachers turned gamekeepers&#8221; were valued in infosec.
