There are still puzzling aspects to this story. I read the original article in the Irish newspaper, which you can find here: http://www.independent.ie/irish-news/courts/fbi-bids-to-extradite-largest-childporn-dealer-on-planet-29469402.html It says that FH admin was arrested Thursday, contrary to every other report I've read, which said Sunday. Can anyone remember when exactly FH went offline? I'm thinking it was Tuesday or Wednesday of last week. Now why would that happen? Did LE seize the server before they arrested the operator? Surely they wouldn't do that or it would tip him off. Did they add the exploit to the server at that time? Maybe he discovered the exploit and took the server offline himself. I'd like to find the answers to these questions. He's been in custody since his arrest, so when the maintenance page came up, that was definitely run by LE. If they didn't seize the server outright, they had enough control over it to add that page along with the exploit code.
