As much as it pleases me to hear the bad guys might be getting what they deserve, it still strikes a nerve. A local armed robbery being tried in a Federal court.... Seems as though there's a States rights issue in there somewhere. In the very least it's an example of a Federal agency extending its powers into local issues. They robbed a store. Not a financial institution, not a train, nor did they hijack an interstate hauler.
This could set a precedence which may haunt us in the foreseeable future.
