"In federal court documents, the US Department of Justice revealed new information about Wagenius' alleged wider extortion and computer intrusion capers, and what could be some very ill-advised Google search terms."
"Despite admitting his crimes in court, and a willingness to enter a guilty plea, "Wagenius should be detained as both a danger to the community - given his ability to access sensitive datasets - and a serious risk of flight," Uncle Sam's attorneys argued."
Cameron John Wagenius, a 21-year-old US Army soldier, was arrested for allegedly hacking AT&T and obtaining President Trump's call logs to sell the information to a foreign agent. His online searches, including inquiries about treason and defecting to Russia, raised concerns of a flight risk, leading prosecutors to seek his detention. Wagenius, who intends to plead guilty, is also linked to extorting stolen data from Snowflake cloud accounts, indicating a broader pattern of criminal behavior while on active duty.
