"DULLES, Va. (Reuters) - Virginia authorities said on Thursday they had
arrested and charged a North Carolina man for sending "spam" e-mail in the
first use of a new state law that could bring penalties of up to 20 years in
prison.
Virginia Attorney General Jerry Kilgore said Jeremy Jaynes had been arrested
earlier Thursday in Raleigh, N.C., on four counts of using fraudulent means
to transmit spam."
