Man Arrested For Extorting Student Filer Sharers

You guys are not going to believe this one. A man was arrested for, get this, doing EXACTLY what the RIAA does to people thousands of times a year. Too bad there isn't any way to get the RIAA in hand cuffs.

Dehelean, who worked for UGA's Enterprise Information Technology Services, called the student Jan. 25 to let her know that she'd been caught downloading copyrighted material - a violation of university policy - and "offered to make the situation go away in exchange for money," UGA police Chief Jimmy Williamson said.
