A British teenager has today admitted trying to hack US government officials including the director of the CIA and Obama's intelligence chief from his council house bedroom.

Kane Gamble, 18, from Coalville, pleaded guilty to ten hacking charges at Leicester Crown Court this afternoon and was warned he could face jail.

Gamble, who lives in a small terraced house in north-west Leicestershire, had a hit list containing top names from the FBI, CIA and Obama administration in 2015 and 2016.

Using his computer at home his hacking targets included John Brennan, the then director of the CIA, and the former deputy director of the FBI, Mark Giuliano.

The cyber criminal even tried to hack the Comcast cable TV and broadband account belonging to James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence under President Obama, so he could divert his incoming calls in January 2016.

Today the teenager admitted eight charges of 'performing a function with intent to secure unauthorised access' to the computers and two charges of 'unauthorised modification of computer material'.
