I'm bringing this case on behalf of the mice at anon_merlin, who first uncovered and investigated it. The links and conclusions here are a compilation of their work.

If it helps, someone on the second page of Price's response post mentioned checking her webpage for further text plagiarism and getting no returns. GF also seems to believe plagiarizing other fic is not accepted by the community, so probably you won't have to look at the rest of her work.
