Sounds like sweeps week from wpvi's perspective, but in addition to

some yahoo from Drexel who said that the list of newsgroups is static, 
so the ISP had to know what was available. They ought to arrest him 
too (impersonating an expert) :-P

Um.. The list of newsgroups IS mostly static. It's not like hundreds 
of newsgroups get newgroup'd each day.. I see about 5 - 10 new groups 
pop up each week.
I've got no idea when the groups in question were newgroup'd, but it 
probably wasn't like it was done on one day and VoiceNet was raided the 
next day. Law enforcement just isn't THAT agile with regard to stuff 
like this...
So for the DA's purposes, the list of groups could be regarded as 
primarily static in nature..
