The younger Golb was arrested in March 2009 on charges of engaging "in a systematic scheme on the Internet ... in order to influence and affect debate on the Dead Sea Scrolls."

I don't get how someone could be arrested for that.

Evidentally, he was trying to harm Cargill and prevent him from being awarded his PhD through a systematic campaign of slander and harassment. Lawyers, however, almost never put things in clear terms that ordinary people might understand.

I think that one of the problems is that Golb used 80 false identities to defame and economically damage the other guy.
