Drunk IT employee creates havoc in Australia!

A former IT consultant knocked out a government system in Australia's Northern Territories, costing taxpayers $1.2m (Australian), he was drunk and upset that his fiancee had broken off their engagement
He logged into government servers and deleted 10,475 user accounts belonging to employees for the the Health Department, hospital, prison, and Supreme Court.
It took 130 experts, five days, and $1.25m to restore the system, when he comes out of prison he's going to retrain as a chef! :D
