the my pictures folder is always the 1st or 2nd flder a customer asks to be recovered - i find this most of the time to be true

as for the webcam recording the tech this could be classed as entrapment

I had no idea so many computer techs were attornys as well. Here is a pretty good definition of entrapment: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entrapment

Entrapment indeed. What a load of nonsense. He wasn't induced to do any of this, he clearly does it regularly hence the sting. All they did was to set it up to collect evidence. He's a criminal scumbag caught red-handed. Open and shut case.
