Sources close to the best ethical hacking institute and the International Institute of Cyber Security (IICS) have confirmed that Kathryn Schrader, Gwinnett County Superior Court judge, decided to hire a private investigator to find out if anyone had hacked into her personal computer.
The private investigator that the judge hired,
along with a digital
forensics specialist, began to remotely monitor the judge’s computer
hoping to detect any indication of anomalous activity.
However, Ed Kramer, the expert who collaborated
in the case, is also known as the founder of the science fiction Dragon Con, and
has spent long years in legal disputes with Gwinnett County for accusations of
child abuse against him.
Kramer accused the Gwinnett County district
Attorney, Danny Porter, of being the hacker, and demanded that the district
attorney’s office dismiss the existing cases against him because, according to
Kramer, there is a great possibility that an unknown user has Active access to
Judge Schrader’s computer. According to the experts from the best ethical
hacking institute, the judge also suspected Porter.
Kramer was arrested by the police and was
accused of taking pictures of a child in a doctor’s office.
Kramer said that while the police cameras taped
the cops that arrested him in the lobby of a hospital, at the same time the
authorities searched his home in Duluth and seized, among other things, his
data on the judge Schrader’s computer.
The Georgia state Bureau of Investigation was then
called to investigate the alleged hack. Kramer withdrew the accusations while
he was in a cell charged with the new charges.
TJ Ward, the private investigator, mentions
that he doesn’t know any details about the judge’s suspicions. For his part,
Porter denies any connection with any hacking incident, also expressed concern
about the security of the judge’s information.
The County launched a small statement, as
experts from the best ethical hacking institute report: “we are fully
cooperating with this ongoing criminal investigation. At this time we have no
additional comments”.
