Yeah. Sometimes it seems there are some incredibly based Judges out there in the various law courts around the world. Another pair got acquitted for breaking into a BAE systems airbase and smashing up a bunch of Eurofighters bound for Saudi-Arabia.

On the other hand, it could just be a form of PR/Damage control from the system.
