I also highly doubt they've broken the law. My point was, unless they misrepresented their intended use of the funds, I don't see how a crime was committed.

ah, my mistake--most people only kind of vaguely know all the shenanigans here. the state doesn't seem to be super quick to divulge what the crime here is either, for what it's worth. it doesn't seem like the three's lawyer knows what they've been arrested for or what they're accused of.
