Emilio Herrera’s Home Searched: Reactions Of Celebrity Nude Photo Victims Kate Upton, Jennifer Lawrence, Christina Hendricks, Amber Heard, And More


Emilio Herrera is the name being pegged as somehow connected to the famous “Celebgate” nude photo scandal that exposed naked photos of some of Hollywood’s most famous actresses. While the Chicago Sun-Times reports about feds seizing computers in a pair of modest brick homes on the south side of Chicago in relation to the big nude photo leak, the publication doesn’t mention the first name of Emilio or last name of Herrera anywhere in that article.

Gawker, however, does indeed mention Emilio in connection with the nude photo scandal, and pegs the Herrera house as the source of the IP address centered around the iCloud hacking. Not only does the publication mention the Emilio name in connection with items like a Kindle Fire seized from the Herrera home, it lists his age and address as well.

As seen in the photo, Emilio is listed as a 29-year-old, with a birth date of May 1985. Herrera has apparently turned 30 since that documentation was written. The address for Emilio is given as 4641 S Washtenaw Ave, Chicago, IL 60632. Zillow calls the Herrera home a 1,134 square-foot, 1 bathroom, single family home.

Emilio hasn’t been charged with any crime. It’s unknown how Herrera is connected to the big nude photo leak. The feds won’t comment on Emilio’s case — nor is Herrera even being called an official suspect at this point.

While Emilio’s connection to the “Fappening” isn’t clear and calls to the Herrera home went unanswered, what’s interesting are reports of the actresses reactions to learning of their nude photos being leaked online, as reported by Gawker.

Jennifer Lawrence was called distraught. Abigail Spencer (A.S.) discovered it took a while for her nude photos to leak online.

If Emilio is charged with any crime, Herrera could indeed face charges like conspiracy and computer fraud. Quite a serious crime, the nude photo scandal could mean Emilio would be charged with email and wire fraud, and copyright infringement.

Computers at Herrera’s home were the source of the hacking. If Emilio was indeed the one who hacked the celeb accounts, Herrera allegedly worked feverishly to do so. Business Insider alleges that Emilio accessed iCloud accounts nearly 4,000 times — and Herrera may have hacked 500 iCloud accounts.

An online search for Emilio on social networks didn’t pinpoint Herrera specifically, although other family names in connection with Emilio could readily be found. Herrera lived with his parents. As reported by the Inquisitr, the Cassidy Wolf nude photo hacking scandal landed her hacker in jail, so Emilio could be looking at jail time if Herrera is discovered to be involved.
