Umm.. Occam's Razor suggests the answer is because this guy has cell-phone
photos of Somebody Important and a sheep, and Mitnick didn't.... ;)

Either that, or the Secret Service is having a hard time figuring out how
to sucessfully prosecute Jacobson for (among other things) hacking into the
T-Mobile account of the agent who was investigating him.  Prosecutors really
hate it when the basic integrity of the investigation is compromised - this
one is right up there with detectives finding out that the Mafia boss they're
trying to take down has a bug planted in their conference room.....
