Cyber Pros, LLC is a company that consist of penetration testers and ethical hackers. EVL Corp has asked the company to conduct a pen test against the organization. They have initiated a contract to have the company test the interior and exterior infrastructure of the company. While John Crafty was working on breaking into the building using the finest techniques he saw in one of theMission Impossible movies a local sheriff was passing by and noticed lights moving inside of the EVL Corp facility. Sheriff Billy Bob arrested Mr Crafty just as he was hacking into the company's servers.

What if any charges can Mr Crafty face? What are possible defenses? If there are any ways to have prevented being arrested?
