I spoke to one of the case agents who was in on the bust while at a
Computer Crime Conference at Quantico. I don't recall any other tidbits
at the moment, but I'll think about it again. They were fairly

the arrest and the case was just getting going (that is, the "case" in
court, not the "matter" under investigation -- U.S. Attorney-speak).
