In April, Jackson Cosko pleaded guilty to two counts of taking restricted personal information and making it public, and also one count each for computer fraud, witness tampering and obstruction of justice.

Cosko also shared Senators Rand Paul and Mitch McConnell’s home addresses and phone numbers.
