A Florida man who hacked into the email accounts of celebrities for nude photos and private information was sentenced to 10 years in prison by a federal judge, Reuters reports.
Christopher Chaney, 36, a former office clerk, said he hacked into the accounts because of an addiction to spying on more than 50 celebrities, who include Scarlett Johansson, actress Mila Kunis, and singers Christina Aguilera and Renee Olstead.
Chaney pleaded guilty to nine felony counts, including wiretapping and unauthorized access to protected computers, for spying on the celebrities from November 2010 to October 2011, Reuters reported.
“I don’t know what else to say except I’m sorry,” Chaney said during his sentencing. “This will never happen again.”
