arrested, and will be tried as an adult, for placing bomb threats to Purdue
University, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Clemson University,
and Florida State University, then charging Web gamers for the privilege of listening
to and observing the police responses.
According to news reports, Lundeby and his co-conspirators are alleged
to have threatened locations covered by webcams. They then broadcast the video live to as many as 300
subscribers. See here and here
