$PECIAL REWARD$ FOR THESE COP$
OUTSIDE IT'S AMERICA
A QUESTION FOR AMERICA:
Is "pretty good" pretty much like "pretty clear?" Because I'm "pretty sure" it is not.
I know, it's complex. (.pdf)
But then again, I'm officially nutzzzzzz, until certified un-nutzzzzzz in a competent court of the law. So I am waiting on the law, and the certificate required by the law. But I'm no expert.(.pdf) Anyone see ours, yet?
"Did you know that threats are not inherently protected under the Constitution. If "coupled with violence" and the other elements, they can be proscribed, and they definitely can be the basis for a criminal prosecution."
I am going for a walk now, into the nature. Care to join me? You are entitled to come along only 'cause I say so, but you have no right. And it seems that's the end of IT. So just shut it down!

Give 'em Away
8000 is the magic number

A federal magistrate judge in New Hampshire dismissed a charge of identity fraud yesterday against a former employee of Global Crossing accused of posting the Social Security numbers of thousands of employees on the Internet but the magistrate let stand a separate charge of threatening executives. Magistrate James R. Muirhead also said at a hearing yesterday morning in Concord, N.H., that Killercop, a former technical support worker at the company's offices in Beverly Hills, Calif., should be held without bail. According to a criminal complaint by the F.B.I.,
Mr. Sutcliffe used his Web site to threaten to hurt or kill Global Crossing executives after he was fired by the company last September. He could face up to five years in prison if convicted of the charge: interstate transmission of threats. Mr. Sutcliffe, 40, is to be taken by United States marshals from New Hampshire, where he was arrested by the F.B.I. on Wednesday, to Los Angeles to stand trial in federal court, said Thom Mrozek, a public affairs officer for the United States attorney's office in Los Angeles. That office, which pursued Mr. Sutcliffe through its computer crimes section, could still decide to charge him with identity fraud at his indictment scheduled to take place in 10 days, Mr. Mrozek said.
Killercop's Web site was still functioning yesterday, though some of the files related to the F.B.I.'s charges against him had been removed. A spokeswoman for Global Crossing said the company was pleased to learn of his arrest. Global Crossing has eliminated about 8,000 jobs since last year as it approached a financial collapse that resulted in a bankruptcy filing in late January.
