Bristol Palin testifies at e-mail hacking trial

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Sarah Palin’s daughter has taken the stand against a former Tennessee college student charged with breaking into her mother’s e-mail account.

Bristol Palin told a federal court jury Wednesday that she got anonymous phone calls and hundreds of text messages because a screen shot from her mother’s e-mail account was posted online.

Palin testified that her cell phone number was included in a photo she snapped of her brother Trigg and e-mailed to her parents while they were away during the 2008 presidential campaign.

She said she was without phone service for weeks because she had to turn the phone over to investigators and there was no land line at her Alaska home.

David Kernell is charged with illegally accessing the account and posting screen shots of some e-mails on line.
