Two former eBay Inc security executives were sentenced to prison on Thursday for carrying out a campaign to harass and intimidate a Massachusetts couple through threats and disturbing home deliveries after their online newsletter drew the ire of the company's then-CEO.

Former eBay Inc security executive Jim Baugh arrives at the federal courthouse to be sentenced after pleading guilty for orchestrating a crusade to harass a Massachusetts couple with threats and disturbing home deliveries after their online newsletter angered the company's then-CEO, in Boston, Massachusetts, U.S., September 29, 2022.

She ordered Baugh, eBay's former senior director of safety and security, and Harville, its former director of global resiliency, to also pay fines of $40,000 and $20,000, respectively, after pleading guilty to cyberstalking-related charges. Wenig, a former Thomson Reuters executive who stepped down as eBay's CEO in September 2019, was not charged, though seven other people were. A spokesman said Wenig had "absolutely zero knowledge" of the actions they undertook.
