Can they be persecuted to the fullest extend of the law?

They'll be sued for $100,000 a day, obviously.

I don't see how, under copyright law - there would be no infringement. But there would probably be some lawsuit that could theoretically work, for anyone entitled (by contract or another means) to any part of the proceeds from the copyright. Breach or interference with contract, etc.
