An angle grinder will cut through any u-lock pretty quickly. You can see 
videos on youtube of how fast it is. I've seen a titanium lock -- Tigr IIRC 
-- that will delay an angle grinder longer, but still isn't uncuttable. It 
sounds like the recovered Sam had it's lock picked or else not latched 
completely.
