Story: Tsunami 'hacker' conviction worries experts

The police need computer forensics experts, security audit professionals etc - they do not need "ethical" hackers or pen testers.
There is a difference - it is about time people started to understand this.
Does a forensic expert in DNA need to be able to commit a crime? Do polce recieve training in Burgulary?
Forensic Computing and Pen testing are not the same. Pen Testers who think they know about computer forensics without specialist training are delusional.
