Heidi Gutman/NBC(NEW YORK) — The hack on Ghostbusters and Saturday Night Live star Leslie Jones’ website, JustLeslie.com, is now a federal case.
Rachael Yong Yow, Public Affairs Officer for the New York Field Office of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, tells ABC News that the Department of Homeland Security is investigating the cyber crime that saw Jones’ private pictures, including nude photos, and other material swiped from her iCloud account and posted on her personal website.
“The investigation is currently ongoing,” Yow said in an email, adding, “In order to protect the integrity of the case, no further details are available at this time.”
Jones recently quit Twitter for a brief time after finding herself the target of online bullying and racists comments stemming from her participation in Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters.
