From what I understand, he had some kind of academic library access for PACER and used that to bypass what others would be changed for. There are lawsuits against PACER charging fees for what's public information generated by taxpayer money. He ended up being charged with various crimes related to maybe computer fraud and eventually committed suicide. A very sad story.
