Kevin J. O'Connor, United States Attorney for the District of
Connecticut, announced that CHRISTOPHER PORTER, age 30, of Wyncote,
Pennsylvania, was sentenced today by Senior United States District
Judge Alfred V. Covello in Hartford on his conviction for
unlawfully accessing a commercial computer. Judge Covello ordered
PORTER to serve one year of probation and to pay a fine in the
amount of $1500 and restitution of $13,443 to the victims of his
illegal conduct. PORTER pleaded guilty to the offense on December

court, between December 2003 and March 2004, PORTER, President of

business of providing computer training.
This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney David
