The crime is separate from the crime of stealing the property. To be convicted, the receiver must know the goods were stolen at the time he receives them. Paying for the goods or intending to collect the reward for returning them are not defenses. Depending on the value of the property received, receiving-stolen-property is either a misdemeanor or a felony.

There are numerous federal laws that make it a federal crime to receive stolen property (e.g., vehicles, securities) if the property received was or had been in interstate commerce.

They clearly knew it was not the mans property who they purchase it from. They just wanted and Iphone 4g prototype and were willing to do anything to get it.

Its like buying tv's out of the barber shop, ya know its stolen, and it is still a crime reguardless. I understand it is a big deal to get the latest prototype Iphone, but we are all held accountable to the same laws, and if your buying an Iphone 4g prototype that isnt even released yet, you had to know it was stolen unless your an idiot. I read your blog alot, and enjoy the articles, but I think your kind of screwed on this one. Good luck man
