David Christopher Kernell walked into federal court this morning in handcuffs, shackles and tennis shoes to plead not guilty to hacking Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin's personal e-mail account.
He can stay out of jail for now as long as he stays off his computer.
The University of Tennessee student, who is the son of state Rep. Mike Kernell, D-Memphis, turned himself in today after being indicted by a federal grand jury.
He made his first court appearance this morning before U.S. Magistrate Judge C. Clifford Shirley and could go to trial Dec. 16.
"David Kernell surrendered voluntarily this morning after being informed of the charges," said his lawyer, Wade Davies. "We look forward to (the case's) ultimate resolution in court."
The judge granted Kernell release as long as he stays off his computer, unless it's for college purposes, and has no contact with Palin or her family.
"Do you feel like you know what is going on here?" the judge asked Kernell.
"I believe I do," Kernell said.
Kernell, an economics major at UT, can't leave East Tennessee without written permission from his probation officer. That includes going home to Memphis.
The judge also ordered him not to discuss the case with any potential witnesses

Punk!
Putz.
May we hang him now?
Isn’t this what John Dean did at Watergate with the burglars?
Awwww poor lil college boy...where’s he gonna talk to his crazy lefty friends? And get his porn?? LOL
I know this will be swept under the rug but I hope he gets thrown in JAIL for a long time!
Won't need it. He'll have all the patchouli smellin' Code Pink women (and men) he wants now. He's a hero in their cause.
This clown was a poster on MY Yahoo Finance boards, and one of the more DERANGED Bush/Republican hating idiots.
Given his TWO Mental confinements, I now understand why...
Whaddya wanna bet that this punk doesn’t get a day in prison.
Give him the chair! The CHAIR!!!
He put them in handcuffs, shackles, and tennis shoes? I had no idea Dean was that perverted.
Here’s a comment that just might be in his future:
“You shur got a purdy mouth.”
THE SGT. SCHULTZ DEFENSE! LOL!
Wasn’t John Dean’s wife a hooker?
Nice, trial scheduled well after the election.
At least
I hope they throw the book at him to demonstrate the seriousness of the crime.
But he is just a young idiot, with a ‘rat role model for a father. I hope VP Sarah Palin urges President McCain to commute his sentence to community service work.
Does anyone have his online *confession*?
She was a close friend and former roommate of the woman who was running a call girl ring for the DNC out of the Columbia Plaza Hotel in DC. The name of Dean's then- girlfriend (later his wife, Mo Dean) appeared in the madam's address book (which Dean had seen) and this naturally piqued Dean's interest. There is a theory (put forward in the book, Silent Coup) that Dean orchestrated the Watergate break-in to find out what the DNC had on his girlfriend and to try to protect her if possible.
