What did you expect the guy to say, "Yep. You got me. I did it"??????


nope, I expect him to say, "The boogeyman (who was staying at my crib) did it. You can't prove it was me."


Which is essentially what he did say.

This is a great test to see how good the feds are at making bitcoin-related charges stick.

Who has the bitcoins now?

"But...but....but....authorities can't get to bitcoins!! They are safe and secure from the government."

What bitcoin charges? He was charged with possessing illegal drugs, which they found in his house.

Are you now saying owning bitcoins is illegal and that is what the Feds are "charging" him with....'illegal possession of a digital currency'?

They found illegal drugs and confiscated them along with the bitcoins they found on his computer just as they would confiscate cash found during a drug bust.

WTF is your point?
