Elgindy's case was never really about the scam companies - it was about screwing with the Feds, the same thing that sent Martha to the slammer. That's what he will be sentenced for, and rightly so.

Half right. There is no doubt that "screwing with the Feds" was a major reason for both convictions. However, in Elgindy's case, a major factor in his sentencing will be gains his "enterprise" allegedly made as a whole (site members, not just Elgindy)-- quite a paradox if you want to argue Elgindy was always about no one but himself.
