...they all said no but it could have been law enforcement from another team unrelated to his investigation.

It's terrible but that actually made me lol.

His main worry throughout the investigation was that some other law enforcement was going to screw it up.  DerYeghiayan was furious with other agents for seizing Karpeles' websites and meeting with his attorneys.  He was afraid to tip Karpeles off that he was a target in the Silk Road investigation.  The defense's story will likely be that Karpeles found out they were closing in on him on Silk Road and set up Ulbricht to save his own skin.
