A member of the Irish LUG mailing list did a bit of follow-up on the
story about the lynx user bust:

Extracted comment from the police:

"Kevin - thanks for taking the time to contact us. We have indeed
seen the same stories circulating but we are not allowed to comment
on any ongoing investigations as it becomes a subjudice matter. You
will have to wait until this case gets to court before we are allowed
to correct this story.  I can, however, reassure all Lynx users that
we are not totally incompetent and that we have most certainly NOT
made a mistake on this occasion."

The email quoted from (use link above) is quite interesting.
