BPR: The former Democrat staffer/intern arrested this week for sharing the personal information of several senators to the Internet reportedly faces half a century behind bars if convicted.
Jackson Cosko, 27, faces 50 years total for a slew of federal offenses, including sharing personal information publicly, issuing threats in interstate communication, accessing a federal computer without authorization, identity theft and witness tampering.
Some of these offenses stem from actions he took during Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s testimony to Congress on Sept. 27. That afternoon he used a House computer to illegally share the cell phone numbers and home addresses of Sens. Lindsey Graham, Mike Lee and Orrin Hatch to Wikipedia.
Authorities later traced the post to the House’s wired network and then to Cosko’s account using the IP address logged by Wikipedia. They arrested him this past Wednesday.
Prior to his arrest, he’d worked as an unpaid fellow with Rep. Sheila Jackson’s office. Her office reportedly terminated the fellowship promptly after his arrest. Reports revealed that he also used to work for former Sen. Barbara Boxer and current Sens. Maggie Hassan and Dianne Feinstein.
Only 50?
Maybe this guy worked alone but maybe he’s a goldmine of information of the dirty tricks the Dems have been up to. Facing 50 years without a friendly court this guy may provide enough for a few investigations to fire up maybe leading to some indictments of people that the public would recognize.
LOL, innocent until proven guilty, his shark says. These people have no self awareness.
He needs to get HRC and DWS on his defense team. They seem to get away with massive computer crimes.
the one that gets me is his LinkedIn e90 says:
LinkedIn entry for Jackson Cosko in D.C. – identified as “Democratic Political Professional & Cybersecurity Graduate Student.”
at least it’s truthful in that it only states:
“Cybersecurity Graduate Student” and not “Cybersecurity Professional”
he’ll never be a professional, not from within jail, and the entire interwebz will change 1000+ times by the times he gets out.
the devil needs to stick a fork in Jackson Cosko cuz he’s done!
Let’s play this game by the new rules made by the left. He was accused, so he’s guilty. No trial or investigation necessary. Lock him up!
“….his attorney, Brian Stolarz, denied these allegations, saying, “Jackson Cosko is innocent until proven guilty, and we intend to challenge the charges.”
That’s rich.
This will give Diane F something to think about
Arkancide.
A democrat might actually get punished?
Call me very skeptical.
I’m waiting for Christine Ford to be charged with conspiracy and perjury in anticipation of her fifty years in modest comfort. …Lady in Red
He’s going to make a fine bit*h in prison.
Lady, a new nickname for CBF. Crazy Blazey
“innocent until proven guilty” must be he’s a demokrap and not a “deplorable”.
He should have just given the info to the Chinese Intel Service
or Pakistan….That’s apparently Legal.
Imagine that, let a few senators get the same treatment that the rest of us endure from these scum and like magic they’re dealt with quickly and harshly.
I’ve heard the phrase “What goes around, comes around” for decades. Could it be that it might actually happen in my lifetime??
50 years? That’s harsh.
At least he won’t have to worry about sharing a cell with Hillary.
the negros are going to love this white boy.
50 years? Nonsense. He will end up as CEO of some cyber security firm. That’s just the way it works with these people, once they sell their souls to the Dems.

Innocent until proven guilty? That’s so two weeks ago.
Old Chinese saying:
“Small thief, when you discover him, gets punished.
Big important thief, when you discover him, punishes YOU.”
One of his biggest punishments is that he will be raped and then die in prison with at least another Trump SCOTUS appointment for the fossilized RGB.
Some mercy needs to be shown this poor misguided young man. He should serve no more than 49 years, 9 months.
When he was arraigned in court he should have identified as a Chinese driver for the lady Senators and he would have walked!
this is the confidence the left has. He thought he wouldnt get caught but if caught there would be no prosecution and that he would be a hero.
Lock this f–cker up. It is time to start teaching lessons. And the dirty little demmies need to be reeducated.
Please take Sheila Jackson Lee to prison with you!
Meh. This will probably fade into the background and disappear. I will believe it when it happens.
Make sure he spends it in a real federal Pound-Me-In-The-Ass prison too.
Just wiping a server,he had he no intent whatsoever.
Wouldn’t it be a hoot if his case wound up at SCOTUS?
