Some photos of Adrian I took at the H2K2 conference last year:

Adrian says he'll turn himself in at 9 am PT/noon ET on the steps of the 
Sacramento courthouse. TechTV is apparently sending a crew, so perhaps 
those of us who can't be there in person will be able to see how it goes.

Adrian Lamo, the so-called homeless hacker who claims responsibility for a 
series of high-profile electronic intrusions over the last two years, is 
negotiating with the FBI to surrender over criminal charges.

Lamo, 22, said his attorney is talking with the U.S. Attorney's office in 
New York City over unspecified allegations of criminal misconduct. On 
Thursday, FBI agents showed up at his parents' home in Sacramento, Calif., 
Lamo said in a telephone interview Friday evening, during which he would 
not disclose his location.

In exchange, the government will release him on bail within hours, and 
allow him to transport himself to New York to face charges stemming from 
his penetration of the New York Times last year, said deputy federal public 
defender Mary French.
