That's what made a couple of our guys angry enough to go and try to remove the papers.

The information the paper used had been posted on our Greek Affairs website the night before the article came out. Thus, the article was rewritten. I'm not sure what the first article was originally about since the court findings had not been released to the public.
Nevertheless, I believe they were trying to save face by stealing all of the papers. Obviously, the plan was not thought out very well.
