Hackers claim to have accessed the email accounts of more than two dozen law enforcement agencies in Texas and dumped the contents online. Anonymous, the loose-knit international hacking collective, said the data it posted came from the work and personal emails of officers, including department chiefs.

The group said the information posted online included classified police documents as well as lewd and racist jokes. In one email to a senior Texas police official accessed by MailOnline, it was written: ‘That stupid b**** who started that stolen car chase at Yale and 610 got what she deserved (I’ll bet she was fat and black too).

‘Same with that pervert that got shot by the county. F*** that guy, see ya. That all sounds like good police work to me.

‘Those folks got the criminal cure. It’s guaranteed, they will never commit a crime again.’

Other emails contained offensive theories about Muslim inbreeding and the details of complaints of a police officer’s affair with a married woman.

Hackers also appeared to take over the website of the Texas Police chiefs, replacing it with one that listed police departments and officials whose email accounts it claimed to have hacked.

Anonymous posted a statement on the police website saying it was ‘attacking Texas law enforcement’ because of the arrests of Anonymous supporters and what the group sees as harassment of immigrants by authorities in the state.

The statement read: ‘Having a slow day behind the desk, filing papers, staring at your colleague’s fine posterior?

‘What have you been up to since our last visit? Don’t answer that. We already know.’ The group claimed to have been lurking inside law enforcement computer systems for a month, gathering information for a release inspired by the ‘fighting spirit of WikiLeaks’.

It added: ‘While many of our comrades facing charges and in prison are innocent, there is no such thing as an innocent police officer, and we will continue to directly attack the prison industrial complex by leaking their private data, destroying their systems, and defacing their websites.’
