Note the $30k "vanished", after being handed over to the pirates, who were subsequently all killed/ 1 captured.
I distinctly remember the story in Time magazine at the time, complete with the graphic of the 3 snipers at the stern of the Bainbridge.
My only observation is the difference in the story line at the time vs. what was revealed in the story this week. I try to maintain a healthy skepticism at "initial reports" of anything, until much later. Usually it takes a year or 3 until a book comes out, or there's an investigative journalism piece later on.
