(Eastern District of Michigan - Detroit)
My husband, Conrad Rockenhaus, is wrongly incarcerated in a county jail. I’m posting this here because you are one of the few communities that will understand the full technical and political reality of how he ended up there.
My husband is a former Tor operator, and at one point, he ran some of the fastest relays and exit nodes in the world.
This nightmare began when he refused to help the FBI decrypt traffic from his exit nodes.
Months later, the government arrested him. Their official reason? A minor, non-violent CFAA charge from an old workplace dispute that had nothing to do with Tor.
In fact, the statute of limitations was just a couple of months from expiring. It was a clear pretext to target him.
That minor charge was all they needed to get him into the system. To deny him bail, a U.S. Probation Officer in Texas lied under oath, telling a judge that Conrad had installed a “Linux OS called Spice” to “knock out their monitoring software” and access the “dark web.”
Here is the technical reality of their lie: The software was a standard SPICE graphics driver needed for his Ph.D. program. As many of you know, this is a basic utility for displaying graphics from a virtual machine. It is not an OS, has no connection to the dark web, and was technically incapable of interfering with their monitoring software.
The claim is a technical absurdity, equivalent to saying a mouse pad can hack a server.
Based on that lie alone, he was held in pre-trial detention for three years.
Now, the retaliation has escalated in Michigan. After I filed a formal complaint against his US probation officers for harassment, they used fraudulent warrants to jail my husband again.
During this violent arrest by US Marshals (who smashed in our windows and nearly shot my dog) he sustained a severe head injury that caused him to have a grand mal seizure in court. The jail’s “medical attention” was to ask him what year it was (he said 2023) and then send him back to his cell. He is being denied real medical care.
See videos:
- Feds threatening to sick dogs on us
- Feds beating by husband in the head
- Feds smashing in our windows
- Feds threaten to shoot my dog
- More threats to shoot my dog
To make matters worse, U.S. District Judge Stephen J. Murphy, III has created a procedural trap that has stripped my husband of his right to a lawyer to fight for his life, health, or innocence. He is trapped in a constitutional and medical crisis.
I am not asking for money. I am asking for your help to amplify this story. You understand the technical truth and why this fight is so important.
We have all the evidence: the court transcript of the false testimony, the fraudulent warrants, the proof of medical neglect. It’s documented on my website:
TL;DR: My husband, a former Tor operator, refused to help the FBI decrypt Tor traffic. They retaliated by using an old, unrelated CFAA offense to arrest him and then lied about him using a "graphics driver to access the dark web” to keep him in pre-trial detention for 3 years. Now he’s been jailed again in Michigan on fraudulent violations, is being denied care for a head injury, and has no lawyer.
I need help getting the word out🙏

More Context from her comment:
Seeing a lot of questions and some misinformation in the comments, so I wanted to clarify a few key facts with sources:
- On the original case: My husband did not have a trial. He took a coerced guilty plea in Texas after being held for three years based on perjured testimony about a “SPICE graphics driver.” We have the court transcript proving the perjury on our website.
- On the violent arrest: The claim that my husband was “combative” is a complete fabrication, likely being spread to justify the U.S. Marshals’ actions. We have the unedited security camera footage of the entire raid, and it proves the opposite.
- On the relevance of Tor: The government’s retaliation against our family began after my husband, a Tor exit node operator, refused to help the FBI decrypt traffic. They then used an unrelated workplace dispute as the pretext for the initial charge. The entire case stems from his support for online privacy.
I’m seeing comments about a deeply offensive search term (“NAMBLA”) that the prosecution brought up in my husband’s 2020 hearing in Texas, and I want to address it directly so there is no confusion. The search was for an article my husband was writing for Encyclopedia Dramatica, a well-known (and very controversial) satirical wiki that parodies offensive topics. He was researching the topic to make fun of it, much like the show South Park did in a famous episode. The prosecution knew this search was irrelevant to the case, but they put it in front of the judge anyway . This is a classic “poison the well” tactic, using something shocking and out-of-context to prejudice a judge against a defendant. It’s a hallmark of a malicious prosecution. While they want everyone distracted by this, the real issues are the ones they can’t defend: the fraudulent warrants, the perjured testimony, the ongoing medical neglect, and the judge’s documented conflict of interest.
As long as I live I will never enter the borders of the USA Jesus fucking Christ you guys have it bad there.
They’ve been progressing towards Christian fascist dictatorship for a long time.
The whole “overthrowing democratically elected governments coz they’re anti-American imperialism &/or socialist” was a pretty strong indicator they don’t give a shit about democracy.
For a lot of minorities, it has been a christo-fascist entity for the entire time. The ouroboros of fascism is just starting to eat its own tail.
I live in the U.S. and just based on my lived experience so far I don’t see this type of thing as being particularly likely to happen to someone. To me it’s similar to how I probably won’t die if I drive to the grocery store. But every year tons of people die in traffic accidents so there IS a non-neglible chance that I will too. But I probably won’t. You’ll probably be fine if you come here, it’s not that bad yet.
Your lived experience == reality.
~5-7% of American citizens can expect to be incarcerated in their lifetime. Average time for state prison1 is 3.1 yearsmeaning this guy’s experience is, currently, average.
If you’re black that number jumps to 13-18%.
It has seen a significant decrease since 2008, with 2020-21 being the sharpest decline. It used to be the worst in the world by far, but post 2020 the US rate dropped significantly, nearly in half from 2008, and El Salvador went insane.
For comparison the likelihood of dying in a car accident is ~1.08%. Which is also rather high for a “developed country”
It isn’t just that bad, it’s worse. You just don’t know any better.
1 currently unable to find more general statistics
Psst, markdown turned your backslash from not-equals into equals
Nah this guy’s experience is not average. After all, ~5-7% of American citizens can expect to be incarcerated in their lifetime. The average experience is to never be incarcerated.
I stand by what I said. He’ll probably be fine. It’s not that bad. It’s not “I’ll never step foot in the U.S.” bad. Give me a break.
“average experience for those incarcerated in state prison” if you want to be pedantic about any of the specific parts there then go off king. It’s not a formal risk analysis, it’s a sanity check.
To be fair this is why incarceration rate is usually used instead. And by that metric if the US is safe then the only unsafe places in the world are El Salvador, Cuba, Rwanda and Turkmenistan.
And to reiterate the US in 2025 is a significant improvement on the state things since the peak back in 2008.
If authorities are so concerned with CSAM why do they work for a pedophile? (donald trump is in the epstein files)
That stuff is only for rich people not for the poors
Yeah, the Poor’s can’t afford the services that get you into the Epstein files!
Unlike Donald Trump… Who is in the Epstein files.
Ah but don’t worry they already told us our Dear Leader was only there because he was secretly working for the government to protect us!
It sucks these guys are going through this. Worst possible time to really need a fair and functional justice system. I hope someone points them to the ACLU; they’re built for exactly this situation: https://www.aclu.org/about/contact-us

It’s fairly common to be jailed for years while awaiting trial if you can’t pay for bail/bonds. I’ve personally known 3 people where this was the case. I had a (false) charge once, and I was out on bail for 3 years (restricting some of my freedom) before my lawyer could get in front of a judge and get it dismissed.
straight to the gulags to do some forced labor if the gestapo dislikes what you are doing.

i’m not making an intentional ussr analogy.
if anything, the gestapo was the nazi german secret police, so it’d be more of a german analogy i guess?
I don’t know either party involved (feds or Rockenhaus) but from 2 minutes of googling, I can guess that both suck.
Rockenhause apparently was convicted ( or just accused? idk im not a lawyer) of a CFAA related crime. Hacking, distributing malware, something* like that. He had a condition on release that he would participate in a computer monitoring program and install software that monitors his computer usage. Apparently he used SPICE as a way to view a virtual machine he had run to contain his TOR access. He had some suspicious googles too that I will leave out because I honestly don’t consider the any cops to be a trustworthy source in court records. So his subsequent arrest was due to violating that computer monitoring program. That was when the feds went overboard. Supposedly he resisted arrest but I wasn’t there so I can’t vouch for whether that is bullshit or not.
Honestly even if he was accessing CSAM, the way he was treated by the feds is abhorrent and not in line with what we need for law enforcement as a society.
*Could the something here be some massive overreach based on him running a tor exit node? I’m no lawyer and I dont really feel like reading the entirety of the CFAA right now. Other people are speculating it was plain-ol-CSAM though.
Where did you see any mention of CSAM or suspicious Google searches?
Running a TOR exit node will definitely make it appear that you, the operator, are doing suspicious things.
The court documents said that within minutes of using a computer for the first time after being released that he accessed TORs website to download software and made other google searches that were rather incriminating. I’m not going to post them here though.
Incriminating how. Are you gonna tell me the guy made google searches for CSAM after installing TOR. For a supposedly tech-savvy guy that doesn’t make any sense.
Yeah that’s the thing that doesn’t make sense to me either. If he’s so tech savvy… why would he use a plain text search engine for that highly embarrassing search. You’d think he could hold off until he got the VM and TOR running.
It’s one of the reasons I didnt post his search here. I have trouble believing it even though it is evidence in a court case as reported by his parole officer.
The transcript says that he tried to access tor but couldn’t, so he downloaded spice right after, and then the monitoring program showed no activity after that. And because of that he got denied release.
Apparently yes, good on wetbeardhairs for reading the testimony. It’s possible he’s not a tech savvy guy and there may be no civil rights issue here.
Feel as though few people in comments here are acknowledging OP’s claims, in a fundamental sense.
TL;DR: My husband, a former Tor operator, refused to help the FBI decrypt Tor traffic. They retaliated by using an old, unrelated CFAA offense to arrest him and then lied about him using a "graphics driver to access the dark web” to keep him in pre-trial detention for 3 years. Now he’s been jailed again in Michigan on fraudulent violations, is being denied care for a head injury, and has no lawyer.
And from OP’s site
The Verifiable Lie: The software was, in reality, a pre-approved SPICE graphics driver for his Ph.D. program – not an operating system. It did not, nor could it, disable the monitoring software. Routh used this false claim to baselessly suggest Conrad might be accessing “dark web sites,” an inflammatory accusation she was forced to admit under oath she had no evidence to support.
This false testimony was fueled by a malicious campaign. We have documented proof that Conrad’s then-wife, Ashley Luster, was actively working to keep him incarcerated for her own financial gain. While he was imprisoned, she illegally made herself the representative payee for his Social Security disability benefits, directing the funds to her own account after divorce proceedings had begun. Financial records further document how she systematically drained his bank accounts, maxed out his credit cards, and spent his monthly pension and disability payments.
The Smoking Gun Confession: In a letter to her parents, Luster confessed, “I had some tricks up my sleeve to keep him in there”.
Documented Collusion: Emails reveal Luster colluding with Conrad’s own attorney, Walter Reaves, to secretly prolong his detention.
Based on this foundation of false testimony and conspiracy, Conrad was held for three years in horrific county jail conditions, where he was regularly beaten by guards and denied his life-sustaining seizure medication. The grueling ordeal ended only when he felt forced to accept a coerced guilty plea.
So to conclude, there’s a pretty broad spread of bizarre circumstances and claims according to other commenters here and at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45261163, as well as OP’s husband;
- Mr. Rockenhaus operated a Tor node, but has declined to assist the FBI in an investigation
- Mr. Rockenhaus’ ex-wife and lawyer were/are colluding to torpedo his case, and ability to remain free on bail pending trial, as well as committing SS fraud and robbing him blind
- The FBI has seized the property belonging to the (marijuana-based) business of his current wife (OP), and surety as retaliation to a formal complaint filed against his newest probation officer
- The prosecution team has either willfully misrepresented his use of Linux applications as violations of release conditions, or is incompetent and unable to reconcile the basic functions of Linux programs
- Mr. Rockenhaus plead to charges in connection to what’s alleged to be his sabotage of his former employer’s business, to the tune of about $500K in damages (see entries related to probation above)
- One of the prosecution’s exhibits at a previous hearing was a Google search for NAMBLA at 0200 - this one seems like an odd entry, as there doesn’t appear to be any accusation of access to CSAM material in either his former or current charges or legal cases
Just based on the transcript of his revocation of pretrial release, requiring him to be in jail while awaiting trial, it sounds like OP is misrepresenting the record.
https://rockenhaus.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/U.S.-v.-Rockenhaus-2-20-20-2.pdf
That transcript makes it pretty clear that the government’s evidence that he violated the terms of his pretrial release was that:
- He was required to download and install computer monitoring software on any device he used that accessed the internet.
- He did download and install computer monitoring software.
- Within 24 hours, the software logged internet activity of him visiting the Tor project site, and the Spice project site.
- The monitoring did not log him downloading or installing Tor software.
- The monitoring did log him downloading and installing Spice.
- The FBI agent testified that Spice was VM client software for remotely accessing VMs elsewhere. He also caveated that there were plenty of legitimate uses for VMs, and did not go a long with the prosecutor’s line of questioning suggesting that the VM software was installed to bypass monitoring. He simply acknowledged that it was possible to use such software to bypass the monitoring software, and testifying that such techniques were consistent with the hacking crimes that he was being charged with in that case.
- The monitoring software logged no more activity for something like 2 months afterwards. The guy claimed to his probation officer that he hadn’t been on his computer, or that he used his iPhone to access the internet.
- The terms of release required that he not use iPhones because iPhones couldn’t be monitored with the software the government had available.
It seems like kinda a shitty situation, but that’s also just how things work when charged with hacking crimes. It does look like the guy immediately bypassed the monitoring, and then lied about not using his computer. But the software itself sounds pretty shitty.
Whatever it is, though, the transcript doesn’t support the claim that he was just downloading graphics drivers. The circumstances all together do sound pretty suspicious.
Aah, there we go, it’s a whole different kettle of fish so to speak. Excepting purposeful misrepresentation by either party, both sides seem to have their stories straight, it’s more a matter of who’s full of baloney IMO - we’ll have to wait for the court case to really see what’s borne out by the evidence. Circumstantial and presumptive claims like these are less than ideal where courts are concerned, but nothing new per se. Thanks for the additional information.
I don’t know about all of that, it sounds like you are rat fucking somebody that’s already rat fucked. I don’t have the time or energy to get to the bottom of this but I do not trust you here.
With all due respect, what the fuck are you talking about? I’m not rat fucking anyone, especially not OP or the subject of the post. Who the fuck are you to say so, if you’ve not got the “time and energy to get to the bottom of this”? I don’t either, it’s a rough summary of material posted here and on OP’s site.
That very well might have been a misplaced reply to you, cause it makes no sense
Okay, but what is that google search term? I am now afraid of being on a list if I search it.
Holy hell this reads like a horror novel.
From tptacek on ycombinator:
OK, I think I found the original thing Rockenhaus was convicted of. Back in 2014, Rockenhaus worked for a travel booking company. He was fired. He used stale VPN access to connect back to the company’s infrastructure, and then detached a SCSI LUN from the server cluster, crashing it. The company, not knowing he was involved, retained him to help diagnose and fix the problem. During the investigation, the company figured out he caused the crash, and terminated him again. He then somehow gained access to their disaster recovery facility and physically fucked up a bunch of servers. They were down a total of about 30 days and incurred $500k in losses. (He plead this case out, so these are I guess uncontested claims).
Relevant:
Screwing with your current or former employer: not a great idea.
He plead this case out
The OP provides a fair amount of evidence that this was a coerced plea.
Sorry but I don’t believe anything until it’s from a reliable source and this person is definetly not one.
she posted video, court documents… hell she has a literal whole fucking site full of evidence https://rockenhaus.com/press-kit/
wtf is wrong with you? you think every person on the planet who gets in legal trouble gets on the news? just what the hell do you consider a reliable source? because the news these days isn’t what i would necessarily call reliable.
I was going through one of the documents and felt like things weren’t quiiite presented with the full context.
I only skimmed it so I may be wrong, but from what I can tell, husband had court mandated spyware installed on his machine. His parole officer or whoever got suspicious when he noticed no activity on husbands machine, and it sounds like husband had installed Linux to bypass the spyware. Yes, court was absolutely wrong to name spice as the OS, but the original post made it sound like the court made up a bunch of tomfoolery. Is the lie that Linux was never installed, or just that the court called it by the wrong name?
That said, husband got fucked real bad by ex and lawyer if those sections in the post are true.
EDIT: I was encouraged by a deleted comment to give the document a thorough reading, and a few clarifying details aside the broad context still seems correct. They were referring to spice as a remote access tool and not the EE circuit simulator I thought they were talking about. But besides that, yeah it sounded like he had court mandated spyware that he evaded, and the spice stuff wasn’t just made up kangaroo court stuff. On September 22nd, he looked up tor. On the 23rd, he looked up spice. There was very little, if any activity reported by the spyware since then, but his wife said he still checked email, suggesting to his parole officer that spice was used for remote desktoping. Maybe that’s where the perjury comes into play? Can’t confirm because there’s no publicly shared info on the ex-wife.
Does anyone else who read through the document have a different understanding?

she posted video
Yeah a video where they don’t come out of the house for like 10 minutes after the house is surrounded by US marshals who constantly shout that they have an arrest warrant. So they break into the house - he still refuses to come out - and well he get’s dragged out by force.
court documents
Yeah and these say nothing about operating a TOR exit node.
you think every person on the planet who gets in legal trouble gets on the news?
This is not the news, this is social media. And a lot of people like upvoting clickbait titles without reading further.
This post should read “Guy get’s arrested for parole violation after causing $500k in computer damages to former employer” and not for running a Tor exit node.
Not going to comment on the legal case, since I am technical, not a lawyer.
You can absolutely use a Spice Client to attempt to hide what you are doing on a PC from monitoring software. https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/SPICE
It’s crazy that you can get held indefinitely just for having software that could be used to hide something though.
Not that I think this is the full story
Skimming the transcript it looks like he out was on bail which had the condition of police spyware on his computer. The bail was cancelled because his parole officer testified that he had download software that could be used to bypass their spyware.
It looks like downloading Tor alone was a violation of his bail.
So pretty typical stuff unfortunately, but even so I hope he walks. I’m sick of this openly broken justice system: Jail, police raids, plea bargains, dead pets, prison sentences for us and fines, endless appeals, grand juries, expedited Supreme Court rulings and out of court settlements for them.
There are laws and amendments against the state being able to do this but you have to have the power to enforce those rights because the state won’t willingly respect them for you. The constitution and amendments are not the property or responsibility of the state. They are the property and responsibility of the citizens, an agreement to abide it’s authority only when that authority does not exceed that agreement. The state will absolutely attempt to exceed that authority every chance it gets. Power wants to grow and must be starved of it’s ability to do so by a citizenry willing and capable or doing so.
But America is not a nation of citizens, it is closer to a nation of slaves. The work is hard and people are easily encourage to be lazy. Once that laziness cedes enough power to the state, the people are prevented from doing that work at all and you stop have any agreement with the state, constitutional or otherwise.
I am sorry to ask this, but I think that I must be missing something… Do you mean that you can use spice to hide what you’re doing on a PC by… Using another PC remotely via spice?
I use proxmox regularly and I’m having a difficult time understanding how I could use the built-in spice client to hide anything I’m doing.
I don’t have experience with monitoring software, but I could believe that a VM could be ‘opaque’ to a monitoring software, and so any sort of RDP or VNC or SPICE or whatever might be beyond the monitoring capabilities. SPICE being a bit appealing since it tends to be a little faster when available.
For example, my work demands that virtual machines have antivirus installed, because host level antivirus can’t see into the VMs.
If it worked by screenshotting, then I don’t see how it could work, but if they hook the OS in other ways I could see it.
Oh, I think I see whats being discussed here. Basically, it could be used to obscure activities from electronic surveillance of local actions, but not from someone observing actions by watching over your shoulder.
Thanks
No worries. Usually in cases of cybercrimes, rather than a Judge banning a person from using a computer, they enter into a plea deal, where you agree to software monitoring. You are of course not allowed to try to circumvent this software.
So it’s exactly what you are suggesting. You would use a spice client to control an unmonitored computer or virtual machine. On the monitoring software, it would only record the use of the spice client software and not details like, websites visited, applications used, files downloaded etc.
In the same way my HDMI cable does.
Can you paste more of the story in here under a comment or something? I think a lot of people would be interested, but maybe not to click the link if the link even worked and was not blocked.
I just did that.
:)
Have you talked to a lawyer? Specifically wrt his right to a speedy trial? Texas I found https://www.lisastrausslaw.com/blog/the-right-to-a-speedy-trial-what-it-means-and-how-to-enforce-it/
Michigan: https://www.hillslawoffice.com/blog/right-to-a-speedy-trial/
Try to get the news involved, make a ruckus. Bad publicity on technical incompetence and targeted harassment.
Edit: looks like OP addressed these concerns in an update. I don’t regret skepticism but it’s clearly an insane civil rights abuse, possibly to forcibly suppress privacy by targeting Tor Node operators directly. This is unprecedented, but also not surprising to me. Misinformation is one hell of a drug, read my post below anyways and don’t forget it had 20 upvotes before this edit. We all were fooled for a minute.
Original comment:
Another user brought up the witness testimony. I have no issue posting it because it’s critical to determining if this is a privacy violation or simply CSAM abuse, possibly the only useful function of the FBI anymore:
Let me ask you about an entry. It’s the last page of the first set of documents in Government’s Exhibit 2. The entry is 2:10 a.m. a Google search for North American Man/Boy Love Association. That is not in any way associated with – is that associated with the dark web or is that a separate search? THE WITNESS: No, that’s an open web search that was conducted from the computer.
I did not get a sense after reading the testimony that the FBI had much wrongdoing here. Not saying we can completely trust the testimony or that Rockenhaus did bad things in reality. But that testimony was not even addressed by Mrs. Rockenhaus and therefore I’m immediately skeptical of anything she said about wrongful incarceration. This is not a high profile case where I’d suspect fuckery either, like Luigi Mangione. The FBI should not be violating our privacy, but they did not do that here, at least openly. They incarcerated a possible pedophile who happened to run Tor Nodes. Tor project themselves say running a Tor Node is unlikely to put you at risk.
If I were on a jury I’d be inclined to side with the witness and say Rockenhaus is possibly guilty of wrongdoing.
Is the entirety of your claim that he’s a pedofphle that he ran a TOR relay and search for NAMBLA once?
And that the claims of Mrs. Rockenhaus should be disregarded because she doesn’t address this testimony? Is there more material relevant in this testimony that you didn’t include? Because I don’t see why she would need to address what you included.
No, he didn’t use the tor relay for that particular search.
Omission of evidence of crimes he committed certainly doesn’t look good.
Are you saying searching for NAMBLA is a crime?
No, but it’s suspicious given the details of his case. Why would he search that when he knew he was being monitored? I have questions.
Literally asking for the details organized as an argument. Is that even the case the government is building?
Pedophilia is a crime, the organization advocates for the abolishment of age of consent laws. Searching for that information alone is completely harmless, of course, but that’s hardly the only sketchy thing about this dude and his case.
I understand that pedophilia is a crime. He searched for NAMBLA which is not. That is the only thing that is even remotely sketchy that you provided. Your entire argument is insinuations and tone.
Pedophilia is a sexual attraction to prepubescent kids. It absolutely is NOT a crime. At least not in any US State that I’m aware of.
Sexually abusing minors is a crime, regardless of someone being a pedophile. In law, these things matter.
100% agree. Thank you for the correction.
I think she’s just doing her best to defend him, I don’t blame her. But it’s much more complicated than that.
We don’t know if he is, it’s complicated. It’s worthy of a public trial for sure. I don’t have “no reasonable doubt”.
Her claims imply this is a wrongful detention when it seems worthy of a trial to me. We don’t know the specifics but the transcription implies he was belligerent and so potentially a flight risk. I don’t agree with the entire justice system but also it’s not as clear cut an injustice as she’s saying.
A trial for what, exactly? Searching the name of a bad organization? Do you think that is a crime and thus a trial could result from it?
A trial for nothing, as I found out the whole thing is just a civil rights abuse pretty much.
We don’t know the specifics but the transcription implies he was belligerent
There’s video. There’s only so much the video angle can show, but I have my doubts.
Searching man boy love is not the same as engaging in it. For instance, you just searched man boy love when you read this. You sick fuck.
Yeah there was an episode of south park about it probably 20 years ago.
I probably googled it at the time, to see if it was a real club.
i remember that episode lol, the north american marlon brando look alikes
Straight to jail.
I actually did not 😎 and if that’s all there is then sure, it’s a not guilty verdict.
Isn’t that search a reference to a South Park episode?
Ironically, I thought it was a South Park meme too and then I just Googled it.
I’ll tell FBI hello for you guys, see you in 15-25 years.
If it is, I wouldn’t be using my computer to search it if I was being monitored. Your point is he’s probably innocent. It’s possible but I do not have “no reasonable doubt” any more.
Actually if possible I’d avoid unnecessary internet searches completely during the period of being monitored. Privacy tools or bust.
Nah I wasn’t suggesting he’s innocent, I haven’t invested myself enough to form an opinion and the details seem murky and all over the place.
I was genuinely just curious if that could’ve been a South Park search lol.
And if it isn’t (and to your point, even if it is), why would someone technically savvy who knows they’re on probation and under surveillance perform that search?
Was he probing to look for alerts or flags that went off for risky searches? Was it someone else on his device messing with him? Was he just being cheeky? Was he being sketchy?
There’s too many possibilities and hence I’m not really suggesting he’s innocent or guilty.
Do you understand that even pedophiles have rights? FBI can’t use excessive force arrest, lie under oath, 3 goddam years of pre-trial detention and medical negligence just because he is the bad guy.
Justice system shouldn’t work like that, especially on a person who committed no violent crime at all.
The excessive force is a civil rights injustice, yes. We do not know the details of the case but it certainly deserves a trial.
Pedophiles are not criminals by default but his behavior is highly suspicious and I have questions.
