Mr. Henry: "In June of 2001, a major Internet web-hosting company contacted the FBI office in Baltimore and related that somebody had illegally accessed their corporate network."

Mr. Schiff: FBI Special Agent Shawn Henry who says this hacker knew exactly what he was doing...

Mr. Henry: "Reconfigured the switches that let their corporate network run."

Mr. Henry: "Through our investigation at the corporation, we were able to identify a former employee who had left the company recently due to a contract dispute; he was a bit disgruntled."

He pleaded guilty and was sentenced, and also ordered to pay thousands of dollars in restitution. I'm Neal Schiff and that's the FBI's Closed Case of the Week."
