Kennett (PA) Democrats Facebook page hacked
KENNETT SQUARE >> With just weeks until the general election, the Facebook page of the Kennett Area Democrats was hacked and deleted, and some Democratic leaders say the timing of the crime is more than a coincidence.
Wayne Braffman, who lives on South Street in Kennett Square, is one of four administrators of the Kennett Area Democrats Facebook page. Last Friday afternoon, he did some work on the page, which has 3,252 fans. He took a short nap, and when he awoke, he found the account was still there, but he could not control it.
So he contacted the other three administrators, and all replied promptly they did not delete him as an administrator. At dinner with his wife, he told her he was thankful that the perpetrators did not delete the entire account.
His optimism was short lived. When he returned to his computer after dinner, the entire Kennett Area Democrats Facebook page was eradicated.
“Somebody was in there for several hours and I think they were playing with us,” Braffman said. “If their goal was to just take down the page, they could have done that the first time. It’s almost as if they wanted us to know. They took the administrators out first, then a couple of hours later, they took down the entire page.”
