That's not the fact that was "spun" into the sentence you quoted. They're clearly talking about the money the government seized from SR publicly, not the money rogue agents took. To claim that they're somehow talking about the second while neglecting the first is itself spin on your part. You can perhaps criticize them for not mentioning the second at all, but that's different from the critique you made.
