Why in heaven's name did he travel to the US?
I was at DEF CON too, for what it's worth.
I'd like to know on what grounds?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
He ran a carding forum in the past, malkit.ws and then malkit.su. Virustotal passive DNS shows that it was hosted for a time on the same server as his old irc, irc.voidptr.cz https://www.virustotal.com/en/ip-address/188.190.99.148/info...
Was it him or BetaMonkey running this? If I recall correctly BM owned voidptr but both had admin access there? EDIT: Ah, found some old logs on google: http://www.exposedbotnets.com/2013/05/hf-elite-coding-team.h... [08:08] if i still owned this irc [08:09] i would shut it down and start over

Why are people in this thread so outraged without knowing any of the facts? For all we know there might be a legitimate charge on which he was arrested. As per him being untraceable, if he was not read his rights then the FBI just jeopardized their own case. If no one knows where he is, it's more likely that it's what Marcus wants at the moment rather than what the FBI wants.
Because they've seen the same movie time and again...

> He could call his attorney have him release a statement right? How many people traveling to the US from the UK, just to attend a conference, have an attorney they can call in the US?
What about your free public defender? Can't you tell him to make a statement or to contact someone?
Moreover, most public defenders are overworked. They will do their job (hopefully), but they are not your secretary. (I'm sure most will make those phone calls, out of being a decent human being, not because it's their job)
