Supposedly, one of the "top" vendors from SR was nabbed recently by the feds - caught sending drugs in the mail. A pdf copy of the legal complaint against him (and his girlfriend) was posted on the web (link included below); it's a very detailed and interesting account of how the feds tracked the vendor down, intercepted his packages, used tracking devices on his car etc. Kind of gives you an inside look at how the feds operate in these types of situations.
What I'm curious about is if the recipients (the buys) of the intercepted packages were charged as well (their names and addresses are included in the complaint against the vendor but there is no mention of their fate - except one dude in Alaska; sounds like he is going down for a felony). Anyway, check it out if you have time - it's an interesting read:
