I am not sure on any prior case law on this, but there's examples in the real world if you leave a dangerous attractive nuisance out in the public space, where it could potentially be harmful to people or animals. Local law enforcement or civic-minded citizens will remove it. It could be argued that leaving exposed outlook web access rooted systems out there for anyone to use on the public internet is not too dissimilar.
On a federal level? If you leave an abandoned ship leaking toxic chemicals anchored somewhere in a bay, don't be surprised if the USCG, a federal law enforcement agency, comes and seizes it...
