> And last but not least the family of Aaron released an "Official Statement
> From the Family and Partner of Aaron Swartz" in which they point out the
> reasons for Aaron's suicide
>
> *"Aaron?s death is not simply a personal tragedy. It is the product of a
> criminal justice system rife with intimidation and prosecutorial
> overreach.Decisions made by officials in the Massachusetts U.S.
> Attorney?s office and
> at MIT contributed to his death. The US Attorney?s office pursued an
> exceptionally harsh array of charges, carrying potentially over 30 years in
> prison, to punish an alleged crime that had no victims. Meanwhile, unlike
> JSTOR, MIT refused to stand up for Aaron and its own community?s most
> cherished principles."*
