The FBI needs to start recruiting and training their own hackers. It is disheartening that they continually bust individuals just to have them perform tasks that the FBI is too incompetent to perform. There is no excuse for this. There are plenty of ethical cyber wizards out there, so the Feds don't need to put convicted cyber criminals and punks on a lofty pedestal. It reminds me of the movie "Catch Me If You Can"---you can only recruit like that so many times until it is obvious that your M.O. is to reward criminal activity.
