What will happen to David Kernell, indicted for hacking Sarah Palin's email account?

David Kernell, age 20, an economics student at the University of Tennessee, was indicted Tuesday October 7th by a federal grand jury. He pleaded not guilty in federal court on October 8th. Trial is set for December 16th. Kernell is the son of a Democratic Tennessee state lawmaker.

The indictment alleges that on Sept. 16 Kernell reset the password to Palin's personal e-mail account to gain access to it. Authorities say Kernell then read the contents of the account and made screenshots of the e-mail directory, e-mail content and other personal information, later posting some of the information to a public Web site.

Suspend date is set two months after initial trial date, because trial delays often occur.
