Hey Barrett. 

Off the record, is anonymous sitting on an email cache from Hunton & Williams. I have a source involved in the forensics that said Anons rifled the email server and got the archive. He said the firm is afraid you guys are sitting on it and are going to post it at some point of your choosing.

It all sounds plausible except for the 'sitting on it' part. That's not usually how it's gone. If they've got the emails (which have GOT TO be fascinating) why sit on them? As a result, I'm a bit skeptical. The Anons could be using it for leverage -- 'if H&W hires anybody to go after the Anon's the cache gets posted' kind of thing. 

So what do you know? Have they got the emails?
