---- First Ever Criminal Prosecution for Domain Name Theft Underway

I'm pretty sure there was no criminal prosecution in the sex.com theft. It was a civil suit, right?

Cohen, who had stolen sex.com, was arrested and spent some time in jail. (When arrest warrant was issued, he fled to Mexico. Then Mexicans caught him and handed him over to US authorities.) If that doesn't involve criminal prosecution in the US, I'm going to be surprised.

Can you give an example of an another [earlier] case?

I already have.
