In April, when ABC was announcing a new,
randomized “drop” system, where only a few stores are selected to put out their supply of limited-availability bottles, one commenter on the agency’s
public Facebook page suggested someone had been trying to sell intel to bourbon buyers on where the best bottles would be.
“I had someone tell me that they have a back door in to the VABC computer system… when they had the Stagg release they knew how many bottles were going to be at what stores,”.,..... - An ABC investigation led to four felony indictments against two men who were arrested last month and charged with computer trespass and embezzling ABC’s inventory list.
