The mother of alleged Anonymous hacktivist Barrett Brown has pleaded guilty to helping her son hide two laptop computers from federal investigators. Brown's mother, Karen McCutchin, pleaded guilty last week to a
charge of obstructing the execution of a search warrant. She faces a
maximum sentence of 12 months in prison and a $100,000 fine. Sentencing
has not yet been scheduled.
On March 6, 2012, officers with the Federal Bureau of Investigation
raided Brown’s Dallas, Texas apartment in an attempt to execute a search
warrant for computers that could contain information involving
hacktivist group Anonymous and LulzSec. The feds hadn't found all the computers they were looking for during a
search of Brown's apartment that morning and Brown, located at his
mother's house, refused to volunteer them. Check This Out: Look At Karen-McCutchin-Plea-Agreement!!
