Jennifer Lawrence’s Nude Photo Hacker Imprisoned

George Garofano, the man who hacked and leaked nude photos of Jennifer Lawrence – as well as countless other celebs – in 2014, was sentenced to eight months in federal prison on Wednesday.

In addition to the prison term, Garofano has been ordered to serve three years of supervised release afterwards.

According to reports, Garofano was accused of illegally hacking the private Apple iCloud accounts of 240 people – including Lawrence – and leaking their nude photos and private information onto the Internet.

He plead guilty in April this year, admitting that he sent emails to the victims while posing as a member of Apple’s online security personnel, in order to obtain their usernames and passwords.

Regarding the photo leak and invasion of privacy, Lawrence said at the time: “Just because I’m a public figure, just because I’m an actress, does not mean that I asked for this … It’s my body, and it should be my choice, and the fact that it is not my choice is absolutely disgusting.”
