Palin's e-mail hacked
A mere three weeks after she first emerged on the national scene as McCain's pick for vice president, Alaska governor Sarah Palin learned that messages from her private e-mail account had been hacked and posted online by the hacker group "anonymous," which had previously been most famous for its Web attacks on the Church of Scientology.

If found guilty, Kernell could face a maximum of five years in prison and a fine of US$250,000.
