Sprint Settles Wiretap Fraud Allegations For $15.5M

So, essentially Sprint just got a $4.5 million bonus for ripping off federal law enforcement agencies (tax payers) and doesn't even have to admit to doing it. Seems fair to me.

After allegedly defrauding federal law enforcement agencies of $21 million by overcharging for wiretaps, Sprint will be settling for $15.5 million. The Department of Justice, which released the news yesterday, said that this settlement would "resolve the allegations" in the complaint. In turn, Sprint will not admit any wrongdoing in the case.
