If you're not a lawyer I doubt you even know enough about the law to determine what counts as a crime, and you certainly don't have all the evidence.
Here, I toss you what should be an easy one: what crime?
Violation of copyright/piracy :P Among many many many other crimes. I'll take the word of the US copyright office who says that it is not fair use over your word.
Make your case.
The US copyright office wrote up a pretty large paper pointing out it's piracy.
