Does anyone else know what happened with any of these stories?

It's just too damn bad that FR isn't functionally searchable anymore, isn't it?

See:15 Million Taken From NYC Municipal Credit Union ATMs After 9-11 Computer Failure, New York Times, reprinted online at Tampa Bay Tribune.com, Aug. 6, 2002 (posted by Retired Chemist).

From the article:

"Fifteen million dollars was looted from the city's Municipal Credit Union by its own members - including city employees, health care professionals and education workers - when a computer failure caused by the collapse of the World Trade Center allowed virtually unlimited access to money in automated teller machines ... Sixty-six people who withdrew $7,500 or more beyond what was in their accounts have been arrested ... and 35 are being sought for arrest ... "

From Tom Ridge, President's Bush's top man at the HomeLand Security Operation in Washington, DC, in an article at The Washington Times, August 1, 2002:

Department of Hollow Security? (scroll down to paragraph no. 7)

 " ... The vast majority of federal employees are capable, dedicated public servants. ... "

Sure. The article above, may as well have read:

from the Federal Credit Union by its own members - including government employees, federal health care professionals and federal public education workers, members of the N.E.A. -

"Reliable" people, from whom you could probably gain credentials.
