It's official, the CIA was interfering with a network of computers created for the Intelligence Committee of the US Congress.

The New York Times is reporting that the CIA did indeed hack into Senate computers, as was suspected several months ago. From the article:

An internal investigation by the Central Intelligence Agency has found that its officers improperly penetrated a computer network used by the Senate Intelligence Committee in preparing its report on the C.I.A.'s detention and interrogation program. In a statement issued Thursday morning, a C.I.A. spokesman said that agency's inspector general had concluded that C.I.A. officers had acted inappropriately by gaining access to the computers. The statement said that John O. Brennan, the C.I.A. director, had apologized to the two senior members of the Senate Intelligence Committee and that he would set up an internal accountability board to review the matter. The board will be led by former Senator Evan Bayh, Democrat of Indiana.

An internal investigation? What about a law enforcement investigation for violation of several criminal statutes? Is anyone going to prison for this?

The best part is that the CIA created that "secure" network, called RDInet, to store documents requested by the Committee to keep an eye on... the CIA.
