WannaCry-slayer Marcus Hutchins 'built Kronos banking trojan' – FBI

Mark M.

Arrested on way home?

I'm willing to bet here that he upset someone with senior fed connections at some point during the DEFCON and they told a pile of wild porkies to the FBI in order to ruin Hutchins' day and reputation. Why else would he be charged before he left the USA and not when he set foot on US soil.
