As always with the Crown Prosecution service in the UK they love to bully and make an example of Autistic people. Only added by corporation running the court system, The CPS' Prosecution barristers are known to enjoy a life of luxury and gifts from them but you cant touch any of it.

Following an assessment by a psychiatrist, however, the judge in the case determined that Kurtaj was unfit to stand trial, and so the jury was asked only to determine if he had actually committed the hacks, but not whether it was done with criminal intent.

I'm curious what "unfit" means here.

His skills are crazy impressive. I wish there were some way to point it toward a productive path.

The UK is perma-imprisoning their subjects for futurecrime and that is dystopian as hell.
