Keanu Reeves urges leniency for Carl Rinsch in Netflix fraud case

Keanu Reeves has written to a federal judge seeking leniency for director Carl Rinsch ahead of his June 29 sentencing. Rinsch was convicted last December of scamming Netflix out of $11 million.

Reeves submitted a May 1 letter stating he does not know all the details but hopes the sentence includes measures of leniency and mercy as well as justice. He described Rinsch as an artistic peer and friend who can sometimes self-sabotage by expanding the scale of projects beyond what was negotiated.
