Breitbart-
A second aide to Democrat senator Maggie Hassan (D-NH) has been sentenced for her role in assisting a former staffer to break into the senator’s office to hack computers and obtain the names and personal information of Republican politicians.
The aide, Samantha DeForest-Davis, is the second Hassan staffer to be sentenced in the burglary-and-doxing case.
Her collaborator, Jackson Cosko, pleaded guilty to five federal offenses in June after hacking Senate computers to obtain similar information on Republicans, an act he said was spurred by anger at the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings. He was sentenced to four years in prison.
DeForest-Davis has been sentenced to a suspended sentence of 180 days in prison, together with 200 hours of community service and two years of supervised probation.
According to a Justice Department spokesperson, DeForest-Davis has also been ordered to “stay away from [Hassan’s] office to include current and former staff, and to not use Tor or anonymized computer applications.”
Court House News reported that the sentence showed “leniency” from the federal judge who imposed it. read more
A really meaningful sentence.
Sure to deter future crimes and prevent others from doing the same.
Maybe.
Unbelievable. That’s not even equal punishment to being hit with a wet noodle.
Justice for some, others not so much
A private citizen not in the swamp would’ve got at least 5 years.
So no jail and 200 hours of community organizing to a social justice group of her choosing?
Slow clap. That’s “justice” for our betters.
She was trying to steer mobs to murder or intimidate the families of Senators based on lies that Kavanaugh was a serial rapist.
The dipshit who hacked Sarah Palin’s Yahoo account got more than that.
This just libel on top of slander on top of incitement on top of abuse of power with zero consequences.
Should I assume an Obama judge issued her a firm handshake with the wink nod?
Punishment of minorities is racist, h8rs. Haven’t they been punished enough by white, and now orange, people?
The article says Judge was a Reagan appointee but he was also a FISA judge from 2009-2016.
Please excuse me for having no faith in our public servants.
They literally claimed she couldn’t even get house arrest because the “long Milwauker winter” and that she was a weak wiman taken advantage of by her manipulative booty call.
What in the actual fuck.
She’ll wear it like a badge of honor.
That’s more award than punishment.
The bottom line: the worst criminal in US political history is walking free. Right, hillary clinton?
Our justice system has became a joke.
Lied to cops, gave Cosko the keys to the office, and wiped-off his fingerprints from the keyboard, and she gets no jail time. That’s like handing the gun to a murderer, and then getting rid of the gun afterwards. Wonder why SHE got special leniency? (Cough, cough, kneepads, cough, cough).
definite “dog face”!!
Why have free college if taxes will be used to fund war, debt, and tyranny?
Why have high speed rail if you must get groped to use it?
Why work hard to buy a mobile phone or a car if they will be used to spy on you?
