Judges can be a bit on the "selective" side when they don't believe someone could forget a password but shrug off a federal agent deceiving them on a FISA warrant application.

If you find drugs in your yard, it's yours. If you find gold in your yard, it's theirs.

What if his password was actually "I Forgot" and he was telling it to the judge the whole time

Politicians use the phrase . "I have no recollection of that". and it gets the most corrupt politicians off without even a slap on the hand..

Don't steal, the government hates competition!

I always like government logic around these crimes: "If he illegally extracted value from others, the government is entitled to that stolen money" Lol.

I was behind this guy at the airport in the security line where they open and inspect your carry on. They were just finishing up with him and were about to turn to me. When the inspector who had just checked his bag shouted for the man to halt and come back to the inspection area.

Contempt of court for not testifying is one of the things I seriously disagree with in the system.

Given the honesty of government, I see no reason to comply with law.

Sounds like the tax man wasn't happy he didn't get his 95% of the loot

Never give the cops your password! 😎

There was a case in the UK fairly recently where a guy was tried for bank robbery and found guilty. Got 7 years inside but his criminal assets were ordered to be seized but according to the prosecution their was £10 m not recovered. The judge ordered him to reveal the whereabouts of this money or face an extra 5 years in jail. The guy is now serving the extra time as many believe he's decided 5 years inside is worth it to keep his hidden £10m!

After my grandfather died in the early '6o', Grandmother for "some reason" took out the title to the farm to look at. She found $20 in between each page.

I'm guessing this German guy has a backup copy of his wallet and is now golden.

This man has absolutely no obligation whatsoever to help the police with their investigation or to help them steal his money and extort him

About sunken treasure, it annoys me when a treasure hunter mounts an expedition to recover a treasure that has been under water for as much 400 years and succeeds, the nation under which the ship was flagged pops up and demands the the treasure be returned to them, even though they had no hand in recovering the assets. Many times the nation will be under a different government as well.

Cops: You stole that money so you can't have it. Can we have it then?

My friend got kicked out of school in 2013 for using all the school computer to mine bitcoin. Funny thing is he’s the richest person I know and won’t have to work a day in his life because of it

Some judges deserve contempt.
