Three Additonal Federal Charges Filed Against David Kernell in Sarah Palin E-mail Hacking Case
David Kernell, 20, leaves the federal courthouse Wednesday, Oct. 8, 2008 in Knoxville, Tenn. with his attorney Wade Davies, right, after pleading not guilty to hacking the e-mail account of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin
David Kernell faces additional charges in the Sarah Palin e-mail account hacking case (Via M/M).Three more federal charges have been filed against a University of Tennessee student charged with hacking into the personal e-mail account of Sarah Palin, the Alaska governor and former Republican vice presidential nominee.
David Kernell, the son of a Democratic Tennessee legislator, pleaded not guilty to all charges Monday, and a magistrate agreed to push back his trial from May to October.
Kernell allegedly gained access to Palin’s account in September by correctly answering a series of personal security questions.
The new counts are fraud, unlawful electronic transmission of material outside Tennessee and attempts to conceal records to impede an FBI investigation.
An earlier indictment against Kernell was unsealed in October. He pleaded not guilty and was released on several conditions, including staying away from his computer except for school work.
Almost a year later, this MORON will be tried for hacking into the Alaska Governor and GOP Vice Presidential nominee’s private e-mail account.
Flap continues to wonder whether the Obama Administration’s Department of Justice will be concerned with the ‘Cuda’s right to privacy – especially when it involves the son of a Democrat POL?

Sarah Palin Watch: E-mail Hacked and Family Photos/Voicemail Stolen – David Kernell Indicted and Pleads NOT Guilty
David Kernell, 20, leaves the federal courthouse Wednesday, Oct. 8, 2008 in Knoxville, Tenn. with his attorney Wade Davies, right, after pleading not guilty to hacking the e-mail account of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin.
David Kernell, self-named “Obamacrat,” has plead NOT GUILTY today into hacking into Alaska Governor and GOP Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin’s private e-mail account.
David Kernell, 20, of Knoxville, Tenn. entered the plea in federal court in Knoxville, the same day prosecutors unsealed an indictment charging him with intentionally accessing Palin’s e-mail account without authorization.
Kernell, an economics student at the University of Tennessee, was brought into court wearing handcuffs and shackles on his ankles.
He was released without posting bond, but the court forbade him from owning a computer and limited his Internet use to checking e-mail and doing class work.
Kernell’s father is longtime state Rep. Mike Kernell of Memphis, chairman of Tennessee’s House Government Operations Committee. The lawmaker has said he had nothing to do with the hacking incident.
David Kernell was indicted Tuesday by a federal grand jury in Knoxville and faces a maximum of five years in prison, a $250,000 fine and three years of supervised release. Trial is set for Dec. 16.
If found guilty this LEFT-WING MORON will be a convicted felon and not allowed to vote or hold public office.
Flap hopes he gets the maximum sentence of five years at Club Fed as an example to others who want to frak around with private e-mail accounts.
The Smoking Gun has a copy of the indictment.

Sarah Palin Watch: E-mail Hacked and Family Photos/Voicemail Stolen – Tennessee Grand Jury Scheduled to Hear Testimony?
A Tennessee Grand Jury could hear testimony this week into the alleged hacking of Sarah Palin’s private Yahoo e-mail account (Via MM).
The Knoxville News-Sentinel said the FBI is investigating the possibility that a University of Tennessee student who is the son of a state legislator from Memphis carried out the hacking.
The report said FBI agents raided the apartment of David Kernell early Sunday morning.
It said friends of Kernell were interviewed, and said they are due to testify about the case in Chattanooga this week.
A federal grand jury is set to convene in Chattanooga on Tuesday.
Kernell is the son of Memphis Democrat Mike Kernell, who acknowledged that his son is being investigated.
Flap had this post over the weekend on an early morning search warrant service on the apartment of David Kernell.
Stay tuned as this alleged, and attempted political “dirty trick” by “Obamacrat” David Kernell is fully investigated.
Update:
The Justice Department has now confirmed that its investigation into the alleged hacking into Sarah Palin’s personal e-mail now includes Knoxville, Tennessee.
The “investigatory activity took place … over the weekend,” according to Justice Department spokeswoman Laura Sweeney. She initially said the activity took place late Saturday night and early Sunday morning, then amended the time frame after reports of agents visiting the apartment building late Friday afternoon.
She would not comment on whether that activity included an FBI search of the apartment of University of Tennessee Knoxville student David Kernell.
She also would not confirm if anyone was served with a subpoena to appear before a federal grand jury in Chattanooga.

Sarah Palin Watch: E-mail Hacked and Family Photos/Voicemail Stolen – Who Was Behind the Hack? Was it David Kernell?
Who dunnit?The blogosphere and law enforcement authorities are closing in and focusing on David Kernell, son of Tennessee Democrat State Representative Mike Kernell.
The son of state Rep. Mike Kernell has been contacted by authorities in connection with a probe into the hacking of the personal e-mail of vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, Kernell confirmed on Thursday.
Kernell, a Memphis Democrat, said his 20-year-old son David had been contacted by authorities investigating the hacking of Palin’s personal email account.
The FBI and the Secret Service started a formal investigation on Wednesday into the hacking.
David Kernell is a student at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville. Mike Kernell said he spoke to his son on Thursday, as he does on a regular basis.
Kernell otherwise declined to comment, or discuss his son’s whereabouts and whether he was in custody.
The Sarah Palin e-mail hacker was the son of a Democrat Lawmaker.
Fancy that – a political “dirty trick.”
Flap knew his political radar was up for a reason this morning.
Ace has a flaming skull up and Rusty’s (My Pet Jawa) photo of Kernell is above and says the investigation is still in the evidence stage.
Gateway Pundit has more including a screen cap of his daddy’s website and Free Republic is on it.Stay tuned…….
Update:
Michelle Malkin has more on the Associated Press and their lack of cooperation with the United States Secret Service on the Palin e-mail matter.
By refusing to cooperate with the federal investigation into the
hacking crime and publicizing the Palins’ other personal Yahoo e-mail
account information, the AP openly invited hackers to break into those
family accounts as well and endorsed illicit activity to raid private family photos.The issues are inextricably linked, to borrow a phrase, and raise
questions about the propriety of AP’s continued flacking for Barack
Obama under the guise of objective journalism.Don’t look for the AP to be the first to report who the REAL hacker is.
