    I didn’t follow this closely enough. What was on the laptop? Was this treated as a security issue? I can only assume if I stole someone’s spiffy laptop, I’d looking at felony theft charges, with jail time. Was there a plea deal? Also who was ‘unidentified guy’?

      The article doesn’t give us the charges, and that sucks.

      As to unidentified guy, the FBI and Sedition Hunters are still figuring out who these people are.
