PotRipper Destroys $1,000 Buy-in Tournament

After coming across the story below, I decided to look further to find some more hoopla. I found a ridiculous video of PotRipper destroying a tournament. I now see how obvious the whole scandal was. The guy could do nothing wrong. It would have been blatantly obvious after 10-12 hands that there was cheating going on.
When you see the whole cards on display like that, your perception changes a lot. It’s different from TV hole cards because you don’t see the hands as their dealt and at the speed in which this video was reproduced.
What I don’t understand is why they couldn’t lose a big pot every now and then just for appearance sake. They never took one hand off. Another thing I’d like to know is how this video became available. I’m guessing Absolute let it come out.
Its a shame no one has gone to jail over this. $20,000,000 stolen and nothing happens. Did they even hand over the money?















Anyone have an update on decision here?
