Quote from braincell:
If his password didn't change on ET, the fact he just emailed someone saying "I was hacked" is even more incriminating so he probably just dug his own hole. Not to mention the facebook activity in the meantime.
Sometimes it's good to let the stupid people try to make up excuses, they just make it worse for themselves.
Emails can be spoofed, sure enough, but it can also easily be verified where the actual email was sent from by tracing the IP (mail server to sender) and then asking the ISP who the individual was behind the sender IP.
This should be an easy investigation and trial. Let's let the authorities take it from here. I'm sure Baron will keep us posted if any charges are brought which are viewable by the public.
