Miley Cyrus photo hacker raided by the FBI
The FBI may be having a hard time investigating white collar crime these days, but they were still able to track down what is obviously the biggest threat to our nation's infrastructure: the 19-year-old dork who stole photos of Miley Cyrus from her e-mail account.
Wired says FBI raided the home of Josh Holly in Murfreesboro, Tenn., on Monday, long after the dingus went bragging everywhere about what he'd done, even giving interviews to numerous bloggers. He had been saying cops would never find him because he moved around all the time -- like he was Yassir Arafat or something.
Anyway, the feds caught up with him at an apartment, interviewed him for an hour and used a warrant to seize three computers and Holly's phone, among other things, Wired reports. Despite admitting he swiped 15 photos or so, he has yet to be arrested or charged with a crime. But something tells us there's a problem when you steal digital photos of a 15-year-old in a bikini, try to sell them, then end up posting them online everywhere. Just a hunch.
