Days before Judge Amy Coney Barrett was nominated to the Supreme Court, the website of the People of Praise was hacked, CNA has learned. The hack breached the membership database of the charismatic community, in which Barrett and her family are reportedly members.
"On September 21, 2020, our security staff identified an incident via our website involving unauthorized access to contact information in our membership directory," Sean Connolly, a spokesman for the group, said Tuesday night in response to questions from CNA about the hack.
"No further details, such as parties that may have initiated this incursion, are known, and we have provided our members with resources should they notice suspicious activity," Connolly added.
Barrett was nominated to the Supreme Court Sept. 26.
