Only a retard thief would use a cherry picker to get the hard-to-reach fruit (coins in a cold wallet) but not touch the low-lying fruit (~133 BTC worth of bitcoins in a hot wallet), then not spend the loot for a year and a half even though no police report was filed, meanwhile Cryptsy continued to conduct business as usual as if a theft didn't occur, treating the incident like some pesky gnat buzzing around the office with hopes that cryptocurrency community members not banned from participating will opine a solution to rid the critter once and for all if a 1000 BTC reward is put on the table.

I wholeheartedly disagree. If they're smart, they just sat and watched Paul and Mullick's workflow and learned how they fill hot wallets with cold wallet funds, manage the servers, and isolate wallets from each other (if they do/did). If they saw an way to get access to the cold wallets, either by moving horizontally within the Cryptsy internal network to some server that controlled cold wallet funds, or by setting up a trojan for Paul to download from the servers and use it to steal cold wallet keys from his computer, than that payoff would obviously be much better than stealing a hot wallet. If we are to believe they have monitoring set up to make sure the funds don't suddenly disappear, which I think is reasonable even for Cryptsy, and the thief saw evidence of that, then they'd know to go for the jackpot (cold wallet) instead of stealing 133 BTC and immediately setting off alarms, shutting off further access.
Here's another idea, by the way. They obviously have to have another wallet set up on (presumably) another computer to send the cold wallet funds. What if Paul downloaded the Lucky7Coin wallet there, either for personal use or for making a cold wallet for it? That's a MUCH easier and more likely way to pwn their cold wallets than moving horizontally within the network or dropping another payload for Paul to download and then break in.
