He got it from the previous Dread Pirate Roberts of course

Which explains why it wasn't all recovered as well. Occam's razor strikes again.

Occam's razor would suggest DPR lied and that he ran the operation from the start.

The affidavit the FBI filed makes a pretty strong case that they were the same person. It seems likely the multiple DPR idea was an attempt to cover tracks.

mavhc's joke[1] is apparently a little too close to reality.

A bit off-topic but I'm just wondering what this type of writing is? Is this a white paper? I really like the format they use and was wondering how I could write something like this.

This looks like a standard LaTeX article class document.

Margins large enough to (fit a morbidly obese elephant / not pose a safety hazard to small children / summon Fermat back from the dead)? Yep, it's LaTeX.

The standard LaTeX classes (page styles) are really meant for books and such where generous margins are a good thing. See the IEEE journal paper LaTeX template [1] for an example of space-constrained LaTeX typesetting.
