Federal authorities accuse a 35-year-old Florida man of hacking into accounts on computers and other devices belonging to more than 50 people, including entertainers Scarlett Johansson, Christina Aguilera, Mila Kunis, Simone Harouche and Renee Olstead, officials announced Wednesday. Christopher Chaney of Jacksonville, Florida, was indicted on charges of accessing protected computers without authorization, damaging protected computers, wiretapping and aggravated identity theft, officials said. "Unfortunately, Mr. Chaney was able to access nude photos of some of the celebrities and some of them were uploaded on the Internet," U.S. Attorney Andre Birotte Jr. said. A recently circulated nude photo of Johannsson is part of the investigation, he said. Chaney allegedly "also took financial information, movie scripts and conversations that the celebrities believed to be private," Birotte told reporters. Chaney allegedly was able to access passwords by monitoring social media and other online sites that the celebrities used, said Steven Martinez, assistant director in charge of the FBI's Los Angeles field office.

Get a DAMN JOB! Seriously. Who has this much time on their hands?!?!?
Christopher Chaney told press, “It started as curiosity and it turned into just being addictive... seeing the behind the scenes of what’s going on with these people you see on the big screen. I was almost relieved when they came and took the computer... because I didn’t know how to stop.”
If convicted, he could get up to 121 years in prison. WHOA! It's all fun and games 'til someone gets hurt!
Call me a sap, but this was a tear jerker for me! So heartfelt!
For months, this young military man from Alabama has made a series of Youtube videos (concealing his face) on the repeal of DADT (Don't Ask, Don't Tell). But this time, he had the astounding courage to reveal who he is AND to come out as a gay man to his father. ALL ON YOUTUBE, mind you.
He starts the conversation off with his dad, "Will you love me? Like no matter what?"
UGH! That just brought about a rush of emotions for me!!! WHEW! This father was a star in the way he handled his son's surprising news! Peep the vid for what he said.
TOUCHING!
PS - Parents of gay children....this is all that they want! Love and support. Pay attention.
OMG! This video footage made my heart drop! As a parent, I can fully understand wanting to protect your children at ALL COSTS especially if they are threatened. But as an adult, YOU SHOULD NEVER retaliate on a young child. Under ANY circumstance!
The Long Island woman arrested on charges she encouraged two 12-year-old girls, one of them her own daughter, to fight outside a local school is speaking out, saying she allowed the fight to protect her daughter. “Nobody is doing anything, and they keep doing these hurtful, hurtful things,” the woman, 32-year-old Daphne Melin, told New York's ABC 7 of the cyber bulling she claims was inflicted on her daughter. “They harass her in school.” The fight started on Facebook, where Melin claims her daughter was harassed and threatened by up to 10 young girls, and then played out the old-fashioned way, on a schoolyard near William Floyd Elementary School in Shirley, N.Y., the afternoon of Sept. 11. Melin insists that neither the school nor the police were willing to get involved to protect her daughter from the cyber bullying, so she brought her daughter to the schoolyard to confront the girls. Suffolk County police say Melin shouted encouragement to one of the girls as the fight was taking place, and made no effort to stop the fight. A crowd of kids, drawn by a posting on Facebook, also attended the fight, and caught the whole thing on tape. When one bystander called for Melin to intervene, she instead cursed and spit at the child, before then kneeing her in the neck and head twice, according to authorities. When the video of the fight surfaced, again on Facebook, Melin was charged with attempted assault and endangering the welfare of a child. Melin now admits she was wrong. “You know, it’s just horrible,” Melin said. “I don’t encourage fighting, it’s not the right thing to do.” None of the young girls involved were seriously hurt in the fight. “I would never attack a 12-year-old, 13-year-old, I would never do that, I have no idea who that was, my back was turned,” Melin said. In a statement, the school district said, “We were informed that the fight may have resulted from postings on Facebook among a group of teenage girls who are also students in our district. We have no further comment as it is now a police matter.” Melin was released on bail and will be arraigned Dec. 1, police said. She could face up to one year in state prison.
Dancers, check out this video footage of complete melee at a Youth Football League in Sarasota, Florida where a referee was attacked by a player (the young man literally tackled the referee!!!) and coaching staff.
If we as adults don't set an example for these players, WHO WILL?
