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.
Sell off his body parts.
The guy has a really long neck. He’ll be the Belle of the Ball in Federal Prison.
“What would China do to him?”
I’m sure China Di still needs another driver...
This man(?) must be prosecuted for attempted murder - posting home addresses invites radical leftists to go there and attack. That is attempted murder.
Plus there must be civil lawsuits against this man(?). He must be put in prison for life with civil judgements against him so when a liberal administration springs him he is still not home free.
There are a variety of networking methodologies that would easily obscure the identity of the computer or other device that was used.
Lock him up.
Would be interesting to know which dumb Dem Senator it was, but then they're all dumb, and have no concept of what security is. They're as much a danger to the safety of this nation as the moron who used the computer.
Attempted blackmail of a Senator. Wonder what that will get you?
Just HOW did Cosko KNOW about the kid's health?? hmmmmmmmm
And how do we know he didn’t hack something and steal the info that he still has access to? Like email it himself or something?
Explain why this turd or his congress critter had any health records to release. There’s lots of explaining to do.
The dem staffers have been some of the protesters in the Capitol.
I think congressional staffers might be a deep state all of their own.... but no one ever talks about them. They have access to A LOT
Probably not, but use him as an example.....see if he squeals!
Starting to think we should treat them the same way.
Absolutely! Threatening a US Senator, attempting to blackmail? He needs to be charged with sedition at the least! These people are so evil! And insane.
If Cosmo is found guilty his punishment should be death.
If it is a charge at the level of sedition, would his jury just be random people off the street in DC, or would it be composed differently? There is no way that is fair to these senators if the guy has a jury of a bunch of other rabid DC swamp creatures.
What a contemptible creature who would threaten children over this!
Can’t get it....what does it say?
