- BigTuna 12y agoSomewhat misleading headline. The IP trace led them to the couple but old fashioned techniques like surveillance provided the evidence to actually make an arrest.
- dllthomas 12y agoIt is interesting that having visited a website that's been mentioned in multiple mainstream publications seems to have served as grounds for surveillance. I hope there was more to it than that.
