i think what many people are missing is that the fbi is not simply "law enforcement". that is why if one lies to an fbi agent, one can be charged simply for that act. the feds lied on multiple occasions to the courts about how the nit was distributed. they have also been given the green light to break the law in order to catch law breakers. the feds used this case to expand their powers because they know the public looks at pedophiles as monsters.
