It's worse than we thought.
Accused doxxer 27-year-old Jackson Cosko threatened to leak Republican Senators' children's health information if any witnesses dared go to the authorities about his criminal activities.
FOX News reported:
According to a sworn statement by Capitol Police Captain Jason Bell, a witness Tuesday saw Cosko at a computer in a senator's office, where he used to work, a day after two other unnamed senators' information had been put on Wikipedia. Cosko is then alleged to have walked out, and hours later the witness received an email from "[email protected]" saying: "If you tell anyone I will leak it all. Emails signal conversations gmails. Senators children's health information and socials."
"Socials" apparently referred to social security numbers, while Signal is a secure messaging application. Bell said that there was probably cause to believe that Cosko published the information of senators, and then made threatening statements directed to the unnamed witness "with the intent to hinder, delay, or prevent" the witness from reporting it to authorities.
Many Republicans on the Senate Judiciary had their home addresses and phone numbers published on their Wikipedia pages last Thursday.
Shortly after Lindsey Graham went off on Senate Democrats for destroying Kavanaugh's life in order to derail his confirmation, Republicans were doxxed.
The victims included Republican Senators Mike Lee, Orrin Hatch of Utah and Lindsey Graham, reported the Washington Times.
US Capitol Police charged Jackson Cosko with Making Public Restricted Personal Information, Witness Tampering, Threats in Interstate Communications, Unauthorized Access of a Government Computer, 2nd Degree Burglary and Unlawful Entry.
Cosko worked for Dem Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, Dem Senator Maggie Hassan and (now retired) Dem Senator Barbara Boxer.
Stop sending in taxes....
I hope someone checked to see if he put this info anyplace other than Wikipedia.
So the DEM Senator is too stupid to lock his/her computer and this faggot just walks in and starts poking around. Who needs a Chinese spy when everything is wide open?
Lock
Him
Up
Looks like someone’s going down for a long while.
I hope that the jury sends him to jail for a long time. He could have gotten senators harmed. I must say that I like the witness tampering charges the best.
This scum needs to be in prison for a VERY long time.
I am really confused, he was not supposed to have access to the computer he used? Not sure how he was able to use it.
When I was a government contractor I had to use a CAC card in order to use the computer, the government employees did as well. That is supposed to keep unauthorized access from happening, and leaves a trail of exactly when the person was on that computer.
Sounds like they really need to work on security.
As Scooby Doo might say... "RUH ROH". Say goodbye to your career and hello to your new cellmate.

Do you really think he did this entirely on his own?
He is a twenty something Democrat Party operative. He does what he is told to dp.
Jackson Cosko appears to be a terrorist who uses a computer.
He should not have been able to use that computer, should have required a CAC card...if he had one it should have tracked his use.
You are also correct that there should have been video cameras.
I am scratching my head at the weak security...I retired 4 years ago from a government facility and the security there was far more intense than what this sounds like. This sounds like he wandered in and used the computer with no issue. It is harder than that to use a computer at a public library.
Don't hold your breath.
Big Bubba is warming up his new bunk as we speak.
I love how those in government can be trust with your private information /S. They collect every bit of data and then misuse it against you! This is why I work very hard at not providing data to anyone.
Whatta’ ultra-maroon...what an embezzle!!
I wouldn’t be surprised if he skates.
It’s D.C. He’ll get a jury made up of other Trump-hating Democrat machine cogs who think what he did is actually pretty cool.
