Arrested man allegedly impersonated NSA elite hacking unit, Supreme Court chief justice
Brief
Colorado police arrested a man last week over charges that he impersonated both Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts and head of the National Security Agency’s famed Tailored Access Operations hacking unit.
Joshua Culver, also known as “Maverick Young,” appeared in a Colorado court Tuesday after his arrest stemming from an indictment in Indiana in July on four counts of falsely impersonating an officer of the court and one count of using a forged signature of a judge.
Culver allegedly pretended to be an officer of the NSA in September of last year and said in that capacity he “could take adverse action” against the Tippecanoe County sheriff’s office in Lafayette, Ind. if it didn’t provide him information he sought, including the location of his biological daughter.
