Actress Leslie Jones’ website hack is now officially under investigation by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
“The investigation is currently ongoing,” a Homeland Security spokesperson said in a statement to WHO. “In order to protect the integrity of the case, no further details are available at this time.”
Jones’ personal website, JustLeslie.com, was hacked Wednesday to show images of the star’s passport and driver’s license, as well as various iCloud photos, according to multiple reports.
The website was quickly taken down shortly after noon ET on Wednesday.
The hack comes in the wake of an online bullying spree directed at the comedian that coincided with the July release of her new film, Ghostbusters. Racist and sexist trolls targeted Jones’ Twitter, leading her to temporarily go on hiatus from social media.
While Jones has not commented on the hack, a number of celebrities and fans have voiced their support for Jones and condemned the attacks.
