A former Democratic congressional staffer pleaded guilty Friday to federal charges related to his leaking personal information about Republican senators and threatening a witness who caught him in the act.
Jackson A. Cosko, 27, of D.C., copped to five offenses, including computer fraud, making public restricted personal information, witness tampering and obstruction of justice.
He faces nearly five years in prison when he is sentenced June 13.
Cosko admitted to “doxing,” the act of posting personal information about another individual online. He said the goal was to “threaten and intimidate” the senators and their families.
He posted the personal addresses and phone numbers of Sen. Mike Lee of Utah and four other Republicans who were key figures in the confirmation fight over Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh.
Prosecutors said Cosko posted the information on Wikipedia during and after the Sept. 27, 2019, hearing on sexual assault allegations against Justice Kavanaugh.

He won’t do one minute of time. He’ll be hosting his own show on one of the liberal networks soon.
I honestly don’t know but I wouldn’t doubt it.
Seems strange to me a guy would put everything
on the line unless he was making some big bucks
and he wasn’t making them as an intern.
Looks like Weird Harold’s new “wife.” Hope he enjoys it.
Perhaps he will be extended the same offer as Smollett. Some community service and Rainbow/Push and forfeiture of his bail, records sealed and charges dropped. It only seems fair.
Who’s staff?
He is a handsome, if somewhat winsome, lad. I’m sure the insufferable self-righteousness that put
Him behind bars will ward off any unwanted attention
Leftists (i.e.democrats) are really horrible people.

“Cosko had been working for Rep. Shelia Jackson Lee, Texas Democrat, at the time of the incident.”
A little prison stint might actually turn him around. He looks like a kid that got seduced by the dark side of Washington DC. A few more actual consequences could change the tone.
Perhaps it will be when he takes his first prison shower.

Doxing? Is that some new form of gay sex?

CNN isn’t even touching this story. It doesn’t exist in their world. Last article on their site about Jackson A. Cosko was in October 2018.
MSM media blackout on this, I bet.
Yep, the CommieNewsNetwork sure doesn’t practice diversity when it comes to their news broadcasts.
The Pubicans wouldn’t have to worry about this stuff if they were tough and be conservative. The Rats shouldn’t ever have gotten where they are. They should have been pounded into the ground a long time ago.
This guy has Schifty beat in the pencil neck department hands down.
You in a HEAP of trouble boy!
Is that some form of gay sex?
