the FBI won them fair and square.

yeah, if by won you mean stolen and if by fair you mean using violence and coercion

They now control the private key to those coins.  Does anything else matter?



*I still would love to know how they obtained them.

AES-256 ASIC hardware i would imagine... or god forbid a 10 dollar wrench Sad

...as leet as DPR was, he used some pretty shitty judgement along the way, i'd be willing to bet his passphrase was less than stellar -and by stellar i mean 20+ char (special/num/upper).
