What this doesn't say, is how they tracked the guy after the intercept. My guess is that they somehow cracked more of the security than we have been lead to believe...
- mxxx 13y agoRead the complaint PDF. Basically when they started finding stuff in the mail, they noticed most packages looked pretty similar. Went down to the post office where some of them were being shipped from, told them to keep an eye out for similar packages. Didn't take them long to track down a couple of people who were posting them, etc, etc. Even if the buyer had been strongarmed by the feds into cooperating for a deal, I don't think they'd have much useful information to catch the seller with, apart from an account that the seller trusted that they could use to order more packages, and they would have used his testimony to link the activities of Sadler/White to the NOD account. edit: yeah, read the whole thing. it's actually pretty simple policework.
- technotony 13y agoI guess that means they found several packages from this one guy, which means the intercept rate is above 0.1% (I guess not too hard to sniff drugs in the mail) - that shows that buying is not a very safe activity (especially regularly!). I find the whole thing fascinating, learning lots about security and police etc. Where's the link to the complaint PDF?
