Police: Staffer accused of 'doxxing' senators caught after sneaking into Sen. Maggie Hassan's office

Jackson Cosko was fired by Democratic Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee after case was revealed

 By Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Thursday, October 4, 2018

Jackson Cosko, the Democratic staffer accused of “doxxing” Republican senators during the Kavanaugh confirmation fight, was caught after he sneaked into a Senate Democrat’s office earlier this week and tried to use one of their computers, police said in an affidavit made public Thursday.

Mr. Cosko, 27, now stands accused of a number of federal and local crimes after police say he posted personal addresses and telephone numbers of senators to their Wikipedia pages over the last couple of weeks.

He appeared for an initial hearing in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., and was ordered detained until a hearing Tuesday.

Mr. Cosko had been working for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, a Texas Democrat and staunch Kavanaugh opponent, but her office told reporters he had been fired once they learned of the case against him.

Police said he had worked for a Senate office before, though he was pushed to resign earlier this year. A spokesman for Sen. Maggie Hassan, New Hampshire Democrat, confirmed she had employed him and he had been asked to resign “for failing to follow office procedures.”

Why do I think Sheila will slip him an envelope containing something suspicious

And, won't it be interesting to find out why Hassan fired him?
