The emails between Sanford and Chapur were provided by Chapur’s ex-boyfriend who was at her apartment one day and saw an email from the Governor of South Carolina on her computer screen. The boyfriend was furious because he didn’t know about the affair so he hacked into her computer and retrieved all of the emails between Sanford and Chapur. He then sent them anonymously to The State newspaper of Columbia, South Carolina.
The State could not verify their authenticity so they held on to them until the whole affair blew up in the media through the Governor disappearing and two Republican rivals of the Governor, State Senator Jake Knotts and Lieutenant Governor Andre Bauer started raising questions about Mark Sanford’s whereabouts to the Governor’s staff and to the media.
