There are court documents linked to by Microsoft, but perhaps unsurprisingly after reading them, generally not by the pro Lundgren blogs.
To be honest, whilst I wouldn't necessarily trust his partner trying to save his own skin, I'm even less convinced by someone that mentions a sale price of $3 for a Windows 7 and $4 for XP (odd pricing, but maybe reflects how convincing the counterfeit disks were or even how usable the software is without a license key...) in their defence in court, then tells the media he intended to give them away at $0.25 cost price.
Sometimes you have to look past the fact one party is a recycling entrepreneur and the other party is Microsoft...

Do you have a link where he alleges the tampering? I'd be interested to learn more. I should try to find the court documents, usually available through a PACER-type thing for a nonzero but modest charge.

It's quite a long video, I can not claim to have seen it all, but the allegations should come up within the first 36 minutes and after the initial introduction by the third party.

Obviously someone in this whole mess is lying or grossly misinformed, the problem is figuring out who.
He said he had IT-experts testify in court that the emails had been tampered with, I assume one could look into that in some kind of public record over the case?
