Remember The Senate Aide Who Doxxed Republicans During The Kavanaugh Hearings? He Just Got A Plea Deal.

As the country watched then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh defend himself from uncorroborated allegations of sexual assault from Dr. Christine Blasey Ford, Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee conducting the hearing had their personal phone numbers and addresses listed online.

The culprit was Jackson Cosko, a fellow in Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee’s (D-TX) office, who broke into the office of his former boss, Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH), and accessed a staff computer without authorization. A Hassan staffer recognized Cosko and reported him. Cosko then sent that staffer threatening emails saying: “If you tell anyone I will leak it all. Emails signal conversations gmails. Senators children’s health information and socials.”
