Hrm, let's see.

Incorrectly cross referencing 2257 records = 5 years in prison per offense.

Violating a Federal Judge's injunction against inspecting those records = HRMMMMMM I WONDER

I'm willing to bet it involves the following:

Judge: Uhm. What you durrin?
Attorney General: Oops. Honest Mistake. Sorry.
Judge: Thanks for saying you're sorry. Don't do it again.
Attorney General: Mmk.
Violating the judges order would make the search invalid, so no 5 years for every invalid cross reference.

Too bad, so bad.

Go read the story, the FBI agents talked with the lawyer and decided to go ahead with the search anyway. They truly don't give a shit, apparently.
