TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Federal prosecutors in Tulsa say an Illinois man has been sentenced to two years in federal prison for his role in a computer hacking conspiracy that hit the U.S. Navy, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and dozens of public and private computer systems.
U.S. Attorney Danny Williams says 20-year-old Daniel Trenton Krueger of Dix, Illinois was sentenced Wednesday after previously pleading guilty to one count of conspiracy.
Krueger's attorney, Stephen Greubel, did not immediately return a telephone call seeking comment.
A co-defendant, 27-year-old Paul Knight of Chantilly, Virginia will be sentenced November 21st.
Court documents show Navy investigators detected a breach of a database that contained personal information of about 222,000 military members. Prosecutors say the servers that contained the records were located in Tulsa.
