I highly doubt it was the US marshals, and you need the private key to sign and label addresses on blockchain.info. Who did it? and why haven't they taken the coins?

It was probably someone that works for blockchain.info. The system to add a tag to addresses is automated however it is controlled by blockchain.info and not the network.

blockchain.info controls the tags. I highly doubt that someone at the FBI/USMS would tag the addresses as they were, so common sense would tell you that someone at blockchain.info tagged the addresses
