According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment.

modern-day world where the walking dead roam an uninhabited
wasteland and the living try to lead normal lives behind the walls
of a fortified city. A new society has been built by a handful of
enterprising, ruthless opportunists, who live in the towers of a
skyscraper, high above the hard-scrabble existence on the streets
below. But outside the city walls, an army of the dead is evolving.

at stake, a group of hardened mercenaries is called into action to
protect the living from an army of the dead.
