A British teenager arrested for his alleged role in hacking CIA Director John Brennan’s email account learned on Monday that he will remain free on an unconditional bail. Now, the 16-year-old must wait to find out if he will be charged and tried as an adult.

The teen, known online as “Derp,” was part of a group of teenagers calling themselves “Crackas With Attitude.”

Read my report over on Daily Dot.  

In researching the report, I started learning more about #OpSafeWinter. You might want to learn more about it, too. Great thanks to @AnonymousVideo for the art work on that.
