I don't know his story, but I had a little chuckle at the juxtaposition of "quite good at opsec" with "in federal custody"

Brought back memories of taking french in middle school for me! I remember very little of that class, save the last few letters of the alphabet "w,x,y,z" as something like "double-vay, eex, igrek, zed" burned into my bra
