What about strong connections to those groups and to a "direct action" cell in Earth First! or some anarchist group?

If the Feds find out that Mr. Hammond has worked in conjunction with the Animal Liberation Front and Earth Liberation Front, he could be facing 30 years or more at Leavenworth Federal Prison.

He does seem to admit taking the credit card numbers.

No, but he does not deny it.. There are guys at the NSA and FBI way smarter than this kid and I am sure if that information is anywhere they will find it among off of his stuff..

He probably put in the FBI number instead of his own.

And their mailing address. That South Dearborn address is for the Dirksen Federal Building in Chicago.

From one of the links tsglTakoma provided:

Speaking at the Chicago benefit was a young anarchist, Jeremy Hammond, whom the PDC defended following his arrest at the 27 June 2004 Gay Pride Parade. Hammond and two others were seized by cops for defending their march from anti-gay bigots who attacked the parade. Recalling the IWW's slogan, "An injury to one is an injury to all," the PDC has a long history of mobilizing labor to defend gay rights. Chicago is the city, after all, where the PDC and Spartacist League mobilized hundreds of steel workers, auto workers, transit workers and others in defense of Gay Pride Day in 1982 when Nazis threatened it.

See my post directly above. Maybe Jeremy is gonna enjoy his jail time? I hope the judge has the sense to cut him off from computer access like they did with Kevin Mitnick.

GITMO is too good for this one.. after all, he is a citizen, and thus needs a fed pen.. not a resort.

Jeremy will probably end up in Marion.

I guess attempted murder shouldn't be prosecuted with this kind of logic.

...Or for that mater any conspiracy crime. But I tend to believe that he committed an actual crime here. If I left my back door open and you found out, came in and wrote down all my account numbers from my checkbook, whether you charged against my account or not has nothing to do with the fact that you invaded my home. Same should be said for servers. Finding an exploit is not an invitation to invade another's privacy.

If this is the same Jeremy maybe he won't mind getting gangbanged in the slammer. Who knows.

I'm sure FReepers would like to voice their opinion here (Jeremy's Petition) LOL!

Some recent signatures:

Dennis , California Jeremy did in fact hack into protestWarrior. He did in fact steal credit card information on many people who use the site. Jeremy is a CRIMINAL and deserves prosecution and prison for his crimes. Make no mistake, Jeremy is not a modern day Robin Hood, but more of a Techo Terrorist. Instead of shouting "Free Jeremy", we should be shouting "JAIL JEREMY". It doesn't matter what you think of Jeremy's political activism, criminal behavior is exactly that, regardless of so called "Good intentions"

Ben Dover, Podunk AR -- Jeremy gives the best head of anyone I know. I think he'll be very popular in prison.

Andy Stephenson, -- We're just $10 away from freeing Jeremy!

Stupid, stupid kid. Isn't it amazing that a kid like this has the wherewithall to hack into a computer network, but not the ability to imagine, if ever sent to prison, how vulnerable he would be?

(Ok, so this is the mother in me talking - too bad his retard parents didn't slap those jowls of his silly)

He looks like a Pat to me.

Good guess: according to other links, he was arrested fighting protestors of a Gay Pride parade. He belonged to an organization called "Gay Anarchists Extreme Group".

This goes way beyond simple hacking.

He calls himself a Political Hacktivist, for God's sakes. That doesn't sound like some innocent guy with no agenda other than the pursuit of knowledge.

They have way to much information about the overall plans for all this pilfered information.

This kid is in big trouble.

I understand completely.
How can someone possess the intellect to do such difficult things with a computer yet lack the intelligence and foresight to ponder the inevitable outcome?


If I'd pulled something like this, my dad would've done far worse to me than the cops ever could.

Right after I got my first car, I got a speeding ticket at a highway speed trap.
It didn't matter that I was 4 mph over the limit only because I was passing a semi *and* that I [stupidly and obediently] pulled over for the trooper even though he'd actually been waving somebody *else* over, *I* still got the ticket.

I was terrified to go home that night.

It was the first time I ever "broke the law" and I felt like such a felon.
Luckily, the folks understood and I paid the fine and that was it.
