Red Security - Suspected Capital One Hacker Requests Release:

Paige Thompson, the suspected hacker that pilfered 106 million records from Capital One, has requested release from jail on medical grounds. The records that were stolen, included names, addresses, ZIP codes, phone numbers, emails addresses and more. When police raided Ms. Thompson's home, they discovered terabytes of stolen data that could have come from many different companies.

Ms. Thompson is currently being held at a detention center at SeaTac; her defense team has stated that she be moved to a halfway house, to avoid any abuse or trauma whilst in custody. Law enforcement has in turn, responded with saying that Ms. Thompson is a flight risk, and a danger to herself and others around her.

Ms. Thompson is still in custody at SeaTac at the time of writing, and both her defense team and law enforcement are still going back and forth as whether she will be moved or not.
