Doesn't the SOL clock not run out if the later malware (Kronos) was part of the same "scheme" (ie, writing malware) as the malware he allegedly wrote as a minor? If you've been embezzling money for 10 years straight, the government can charge you with all of it.

Yes. Rethinking that. But if THAT's why it's in there, then the false statements charge is even more batshit, bc Hutchins DID admit to that.

It's also still relevant conduct for sentencing. But yeah, there's lot going on here.

For sentencing if it happened when Hutchins was 17?
