I'll go look up the U.S.C codes for the crime. It's been about three years since I did anything with email abuse, but I do remember us aiding the FBI in some cases in SLC and the exact code does not come to mind, but I know it's there -- we've defended some folks who were accused of it in Provo.
I'll get the info and post later today.
