He’s ordered to pay it all in restitution. LOL.

How, though? Unless the guy turns out to be the hitherto unknown true heir to Saudi Arabia, I doubt he'd be able to do so. Is it just garnishing his paycheck for the rest of his life?

I mean, Hades apparently named his dog 'Spot', so I can't be too off the mark.

One wouldn’t expect that that particular monarch’s decrees would be well‐heeded.

Reading his Wikipedia page, he doesn't seem all that bad, and was kind of well-regarded in his time (apart from trying to make peace between Catholics and Protestants); is there something the article does not mention?

Doge Dandolo didn't. But the Eastern Romans would. Oh, they would.
