I love this part..
A federal law enforcement official said one of the suspects was picked up in a car a couple of blocks away with a listening device that could pick up transmissions. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the information was not part of the FBI affidavit. Another official said Dai was the suspect arrested outside.
All four suspects were charged with entering federal property under false pretenses for the purpose of committing a felony, which carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
"It was poor judgment," Flanagan's lawyer, Garrison Jordan, said. "I don't think there was any intent or motive to commit a crime."

So the next time you want to bug the federal offices of someone you disagree with, just tell the judge it was "poor judgement"..
I'm sure he'll let you go....
Undoubtedly the conservative justification of his actions will continue. For a conservative it's "bad judgement" where they'd want to hang a liberal for doing the same.
Let's hope he gets the 10 years.
