Well I am not going to judge anyone on the basis of a quote in the press, as he may have been misquoted or taken out of context. But the statement as quoted is wrong, there clearly is an applicable legal framework as was discussed ad nauseum a couple of years ago and since, and the FBI would not have investigated if there wasn't. And PWCC would not have cooperated (for a long while anyhow), and his elite criminal lawyer would not have advised him to, if there wasn't. Maybe the reporter should have asked Special Agent Brusokas if he wanted to know about the law..
