Democratic intern arrested in doxxing of GOP senators during Kavanaugh hearing

A Democratic congressional staffer was arrested Wednesday and accused of posting the personal information of at least one Republican senator during last week's hearing about sexual assault claims against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, authorities said.

U.S. Capitol Police said 27-year-old Jackson Cosko was charged with making public restricted personal information, witness tampering, threats in interstate communication, unauthorized access of a government computer, identity theft, second-degree burglary and unlawful entry. Police added that the investigation was continuing and more charges could be filed.

Senior congressional sources tell Fox News that Cosko most recently worked as a staffer for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas. He also had worked with Sen. Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., and former Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer of California. A LinkedIn page with Cosko's name on it describes him as a "Democratic Political Professional & Cybersecurity Graduate Student."

Sen. Graham on scrutinizing handling of Kavanaugh hearingVideo Personal information of Sens. Lindsey Graham, Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch was posted on their respective Wikipedia pages as the Senate Judiciary Committee questioned Kavanaugh over allegations that he assaulted Christine Blasey Ford at a high school party in the early 1980s. All three have professed their belief that Kavanaugh is innocent of the claims brought against him by Ford, with Graham telling the federal judge "you've got nothing to apologize for" amid a fiery rant denouncing Democrats' handling of the claims.

Well, he’s either guilty or he isn’t. Gotta think that because of his boss’ dark tan, they would have liked to let him slide. But I read a few days ago that they had the electronic signature of a computer in HER offices. So I guess they had him cold.

Of course he is just an intern. They want to downplay how long this guy has been around. And it has been awhile now since he has been bouncing around all of the low life liberal senator’
s offices.

“Someone on the left actually got arrested?? About time.”

Not really. Just an intern. The real criminals still roam the halls and retain their clearances.

Something else to keep in mind. I remember that Wiki had reported previous instances where the Same IP had been used to doxx in the past.

She was safe in saying that because she knew who did it and it wasn't "her staff". Complicit by association. Rats all.

Lock her up! (#hertoo)

This guy also got charged with Witness Tampering. maybe that envelope had some information in it highly suspicious. They need to talk to Sheila and ask her what she knows.
