I can't say for sure, and it's to your credit you didn't think to doubt it, Vibe... but the whole thing sounds shady to me. The Gator character browsing doesn't neccesarily mean anything. His account could have been left on, a friend might have been using it, hey, sounds like the FBI is loaning out laptops left and right in Boston and NYC right now, so who knows.

But it sounds like hogwash to me, from the tough guy cop 'assigned' to the case on down. I also find it telling that this is an opportuity for several at this board to sound off about how they'll kill this guy on sight (which concidering they don't know who he is is funny in and of itself) to their eagerly paranoid fear as they desperately wonder are they important enough to pack heat.

This is one of the needs the internet fulfills. Making people feel as if they are the stars of their own movie.
