The hacking allegation: 'I hacked into his computer and phone'
A sworn affidavit by South Carolina journalist Ashleigh Messervy attests that at a private August 28, 2024 meeting, Rep. Nancy Mace, after explaining she 'used to be a programmer,' told her: 'I hacked into his [Patrick's] computer and phone.' In her own court filings Mace denies that she 'hacked' the phone, saying her former fiance gave her express permission, added her thumbprint, and told her she could access it whenever she wanted, though she admits she accessed the hidden folders on his phone using a four-digit code. The word, and whether it fits the conduct, is contested; the matters remain unproven and in ongoing litigation.
