I understand this is a juicy story -- but forgive me, how is this not considered off-topic given the HN guideline:

  Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon.

shrug Apparently the peculiarity and the fact that the accused is well known in certain tech/engineering sectors has passed the 'things hackers are interested in' bar.

From the same guidelines you quote:
