IT director pleads guilty to deleting organ donation records (updated)

Posted on May 1, 2009 by Dissent

Not all data losses are created equal.

Grant Gross of IDG News Service reports:

The former IT director for a nonprofit organ and tissue donation center pleaded guilty to a charge that she broke into the organization’s computer network and deleted organ donation database records, invoice files, and database and accounting software, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) said.

Danielle Duann, 51, pleaded guilty Thursday in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas to a charge related to illegally accessing the computer network of LifeGift Organ Donation Center in Houston. Duann was indicted in June on one count of causing damage to a protected computer.

There needs to be a special place in Hell for her.

Update: the press release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office Southern District of Texas is now online.
