Since we haven't seen much public about just what happened, I suppose we can
assume that it was the usual careless lax security.
I *am* curious if the perpretrators left a trail. I'm not sure that I'd want
to be caught by the Justice Department. "Oh, please! Make an example of me!
I want you to use me as your test case!" ;-)
The sad thing is that if they're good enough to be a real threat, they
probably won't get caught. If they were amateurs, they'll have an example
made of them.
