Reminds me of this guy who used Tor to send a fake bomb threat to his school but he was the only person on the whole campus connecting to Tor.

Reminds me of this guy who used Tor to send a fake bomb threat to his school but he was the only person on the whole campus connecting to Tor.
There were 4 people, but he confessed when questioned.
I guess the lesson there is that if you don't want to be convicted of a crime, don't confess to a crime? They won't give you a lighter sentence for confessing.

Ever hear of moral integrity?
Unless the penalty is unjust (say, execution for a minor crime), a just man will confess and accept his punishment as right as just. He himself will want justice to be done and will want to pay for his crime.
A remorseful murderer knows he deserves death. He might ask for mercy, but failing that, he will accept the penalty with dignity and grace.
This is the kind of value a population can collectively hold until they look around and see the culture doesn't value it anymore. Moral integrity stopped being a cultural value that mattered here before I was even born, if it ever really did matter for anyone except the "common" man.

"...the only person on the whole campus connecting to Tor."
Talk about doubly stupid, first sending the threat, second using Tor on campus. I often wonder what goes (or doesn't go) through the mind of such people.
