said by GlobalMind :The difference here is that I think what they're saying is he also was sharing that folder on some P2P app. I think that's a different story. That's probably enough to claim intent to distribute, which is a problem. Somehow they got a list of what he was sharing. So either it was available publically or they hacked his PC or network. Ah. So if I walk around town with a pistol openly carried on my hip, you know that I have the intent to use it on somebody. That is actually legal, under state law in California; open carry. Might be different under local laws, but that is the state law.
"Intent" is damned hard to prove, absent an overt act. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum |
