That seems like a great expense to go to for the sake of a possibility the guy might do more than peek out of the window and then go back to what they were doing.
Surely there were a bunch of other options to consider before "let's stage a car crash"?
- somedude895 5y agoI heard the story on the Darknet Diaries podcast. This article on Vice[0] seems to confirm it: > Phirippidis told the audience that the bureau managed to corner Cazes and arrest him while he was still logged in as the admin of AlphaBay by ramming a car through the front gate of his home in Thailand.

- alias_neo 5y agoThanks for the link, that was an interesting read. The part abour crashing it through his front gate makes it more likely he'll respond which makes more sense.
