Linkin Park Fan Allegedly Hacked Into Singer's Phone
A crazed Linkin Park fan found herself in the slammer after hacking into singer Chester Benningtons email and cell phone accounts. Devon Townsend probably now regrets listening to Numb hundreds of times while whacking-off over a photo of Bennington (Ok, I made that up, but you know she most likely did some dumb shit like that). Anyhoo, police arrested the Albuquerque, NM woman last weekend, claiming she used her work computer at Sandia National Laboratories, a national security support center, to gain access to private cell phone records of Bennington. Townsend also used the same computer to access the email account of Benningtons wife.
Court documents allege that Townsend obtained personal phone numbers that Bennington had called and pictures he had taken with his camera phone. Authorities believe she also hacked into the e-mail account of Bennington's wife, Talinda, a former Playboy model, and has made threatening phone calls to her.
Talinda Bennington reported the security breach on the couple's Verizon Wireless online account last month, saying that she was worried about a "stalker," according to a federal affadavit. Police traced the activity to Townsend, who admitted to the online hacking and the threatening calls, the affadavit states. A search of Townsend's house then turned up Linkin Park memorabilia.
Benningtons reps declined to comment on the crazy broad.
