Computer hackers stole thousands of Lightfoot administration emails. Here’s a look at some of what they leaked online.

Hackers recently stole a cache of thousands of city of Chicago emails that were electronically transferred from Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s administration to the Jones Day law firm.City officials have declined to comment on individual hacked emails: “Reporting on materials compromised during a third-party vendor data transfer makes all of us less safe and encourages future bad actors to use nefarious means to gain information.” The hacked emails, now visible online, were sent or received by four former city employees over a two-year period and offer some insight into the inner-workings of the Lightfoot administration — how some decisions are made, who was involved and what they were thinking.
