Romanian hacker Marcel Lazăr Lehel — better known as Guccifer — is being extradited to the United States, say news reports.
The hacker has scored many notable victims in recent years, including Hillary Clinton shadow adviser Sid Blumenthal.
Guccifer once bragged to PANDO that “I used to read [Clinton’s] memos… and then do the gardening.”
As the Daily Caller has previously reported, Guccifer’s hacking has played a role in the Clinton email scandal:
Sidney Blumenthal emailed Hillary Clinton at least two intelligence reports about Libya which were not included in the trove of 296 emails released by the State Department on Friday.
Clinton has claimed that in December she turned over all official government emails she sent or received from her personal account while in office. In turn, the agency has claimed it turned all Clinton emails related to Libya or Benghazi over to the House Select Committee investigating the Benghazi attack.
But a screenshot of Blumenthal’s email inbox, which the Romanian hacker Guccifer published in March 2013, shows two reports about Libya emailed to Clinton which were not released in Friday’s batch.
It’s not known whether Guccifer’s extradition is in any way connected to the investigation into Clinton’s private email server.
