Doggonit, Palin Email Hacker a Maverick Too!
Five years in prison, a $250,000 fine and a three-year term of supervised release. That’s the maximum sentence facing the Tennessee college student who was indicted today on charges that he broke into Gov. Sarah Palin’s private email account last month.




Pinpointing the person responsible for hacking Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s Yahoo Mail account may turn out to be as easy as hacking the account itself. Tennessee State Rep. Mike Kernell acknowledged today that his son, David Kernell–a University of Tennessee-Knoxville student–is among those believed to be responsible for the hack.
