In 2012 there was a guy
arrested in the Seattle  
area that owned 5 hobby
boards. His boards were
taken down of course.

There are plenty of other  
boards and forums around
the country, I wonder if
we will see more taken down...

The guy that got arrested
in 2012 was from Spokane
and he owned the following:

Spokaneboard
Montanaboard
Dakotaboard
Utahhobby
Tnabucket

But I can't find anything
out about the outcome of
his case....

Does anyone know anything
about what happened to him?
