The phone hacking scandal is a controversy over illegal acquisition of confidential information by news media organizations that reportedly occurred in the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia between 1995 and 2011. This article includes reference lists for various topics relating to that scandal.

Overview and topics

These lists are organized according to the topics shown below in blue type.

By 2002, the practice of publications using private investigators to acquire confidential information was widespread,^[1] with some individuals using illegal methods.^[1][2] Victims of these illegal methods included celebrities,^[3] politicians,^[4] law enforcement officials,^[4] solicitors,^[4] and ordinary citizens.^[5] As this illegal activity became apparent, arrests were made^[9][6] and some convictions achieved.^[9][7] Upon learning their privacy had been violated, some victims retained solicitors and filed suit against news media companies and their agents,^[8] in some cases receiving financial payments for violation of privacy.^[9] Successful suits and publicity from investigative news articles^[10] led to further disclosures, including the names of more victims,^[5] more documentary evidence of wrongdoing,^[11] admissions of wrongdoing,^[18] and potentially related payments.^[12] Allegations were made of poor judgement^[13] and cover up by news media executives^[14][15] and law enforcement officials.^[16] As a result, new investigations were initiated^[17] and several senior executives and police officials resigned.^[18][19] There were also significant commercial consequences of the scandal.^[20][21]

Individuals included on these lists are reportedly involved as victims, perpetrators, investigators, solicitors, or responsible oversight officials in the phone hacking scandal. Illegal acquisition of information was allegedly accomplished by accessing private voicemail accounts, hacking into computers, making false statements to officials to obtain confidential information, entrapment,^[22][23] blackmail,^[24] burglaries,^[25] theft of mobile phones^[26] and making payments to officials in exchange for confidential information. The kind of information acquired illegally may have include private communication, physical location of individuals, bank account records, medical records, phone bills, tax files, and organizational strategies.^[27]

There is evidence that illegal acquisition of confidential information continued at least into 2010.^[28][29] Solicitors representing victims were targeted for surveillance by news organizations being sued as recently as 2011.^[37]

Surveillance targets

These are lists of individuals who were targeted for surveillance beyond simple phone hacking by news media organizations. Some were targeted simply to acquire information for developing a story but others were vocal critics of news media companies and may have been targeted to obtain information with which to influence criminal investigations, civil suits, and Parliamentary hearings.

Critics of news media organizations

This list includes a serving police officer, two solicitors with clients suing News International, and a Member of Parliament. Dates in parenthesis indicate the approximate date that surveillance was initiated.

1. Cook, David; (June 2002) While investigating Jonathan Rees and Sid Fillery in connection with the 1987 murder of Daniel Morgan, Metropolitan Police detective chief superintendent Cook reportedly became a surveillance target of Glenn Mulcaire, who was working for News of the World.^{&91;4&93;&91;30&93;&91;31&93;} Fillery reportedly used his relationship with Alex Marunchak at News of the World to arrange for Mulcaire to obtain Cook's home address, his internal payroll number at the Metropolitan police, his date of birth and figures for the amount that he and his wife were paying for their mortgage. Surveillance of Cook is also reported to have involved physically following him and his young children, attempts to access his voicemail and that of his wife, and possibly attempts to send a "Trojan horse" email in an attempt to steal information from his computer. Documents reportedly in the possession of the Scotland Yard shows that "Mulcaire did this on the instructions of Greg Miskiw, the paper's assistant editor and a close friend of Marunchak." Attempts also appear to have been made to open letters which had been left in Cook's external postbox, indicating a "possible attempt to pervert the course of justice." Rebekah Brooks, then editor for News of the World, was aware of the surveillance.^&91;32&93;
2. Watson, Tom; (September 2009) Watson had been at odds with News International since 2006, when he quit as Government Minister and signed a letter demanding that Tony Blair resign as Prime Minister. Rebekah Brooks, then editor of News International's The Sun, reportedly stated she would not forgive him for this and that she would pursue Watson for the rest of his life.^&91;33&93; Watson found himself targeted, with strangers going through his trash and harassing his family.^&91;33&93; As a member of the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee, he confronted News International executives with critical observations and probing questions. While the Committee was holding hearings leading to a formal report on phone hacking, three as yet unnamed News International executives arranged for Watson to be put under surveillance by private investigator and former policeman, Derek Webb.^&91;34&93;
3. Lewis, Mark; (May 2010) While Lewis was representing claimants against News of the World for phone hacking, its parent company, News International, hired Derek Webb to put Lewis and his family under surveillance. This was reportedly part of an attempt to gather evidence for false smears about his private life and thereby interfere with his ability to represent clients.^&91;35&93; The attempt to discredit the solicitors may also have been intended to protect the reputation of Andy Coulson, formerly editor of News of the World who subsequently became head of communications for the Conservative Party and senior media adviser to Prime Minister David Cameron.^&91;36&93; A dossier including video taken of his ex-wife and daughter was given to Tom Crone, the senior legal manager at News International. James Murdoch was executive chairman of the company at the time.^{&91;35&93;&91;37&93;&91;49&93;&91;38&93;} Lewis told the Leveson Inquiry that "News International sought to destroy my life, and very nearly succeeded."^&91;39&93;
4. Harris, Charlotte; (January 2011) Like Mark Lewis, Harris also came under surveillance by an agent of News International while representing clients suing the company in relation to phone hacking by News of the World." Her pursuit of evidence for her clients led to disclosure of information that reportedly resulted in the firing of Ian Edmondson from News of the World and the resignation of the prime minister's media adviser, Andy Coulson. Also like Lewis, both she and her family were followed and video-taped, with a dossier given to News International's Tom Crone. The private investigator, Derek Webb, was asked to establish that Harris was having an affair with someone it turned out that she had never met. Over the years, News International had engaged Webb to target more than 90 people.^{&91;35&93;&91;34&93;&91;36&93;&91;37&93;}

Other surveillance targets

In November 2011, Channel 4 News disclosed a list of 153 people upon whom private investigator Derek Webb was reportedly asked by the News of the World to carry out surveillance between 2003 and 2011. Listed below are celebrities, politicians and other public figures. Excluded from the list are those who seem to be ordinary members of the public.^[40]

3. Steven Heffer, Partner at London law firm Collyer Bristow LLP, who acts for about 80 victims.
4. Mark Lewis; As solicitor for the Professional Footballers' Association in 2005, Lewis realized that News of the World was using phone hacking as the basis for a story concerning Gordon Taylor. In 2008, Lewis became the first solicitor to bring a claim for a client relating to phone hacking and went on to win a settlement from the newspaper for phone hacking. Taylor received £700,000.^&91;45&93; While represent clients against News International, the company hired a private investigator to put Lewis and his family under surveillance.^&91;46&93; Lewis lost his position at George Davies Solicitors L.L.P because the firm did not want to be involved in his suits.^&91;37&93; In 2011 Lewis acted for the family of Milly Dowler achieving a record £3 million deal. He joined Taylor Hampton Solicitors in London. Lewis has represented about 100 claimants against the News of the World and other newspapers and has explored filing phone hacking suits in the US.^&91;37&93;

10. Chris Waters, Head of Dispute Resolution at London Law Firm Malletts represents Former Boxing World Champion Chris Eubank and ex-wife Karron Stephen-Martin in News International Hacking Claims. Waters also acts for numerous other victims in claims against News International.

Allen was the Claimant Group's first co-ordinator, Thomson took over after Allen settled her claims. There were several other solicitors involved in the group, including Mark Stephens.

Otherwise involved in phone hacking scandal

1. Lawrence Abramson; As solicitor at Harbottle & Lewis, Abramson sent a letter 29 May 2007 stating H&L's review of emails provided by News International did not indicate involvement in phone hacking by other than Clive Goodman.^&91;48&93; This letter was subsequently used by News International executives to maintain that Goodman was a single "rogue reporter."^&91;49&93; When Lord Kenneth Macdonald reviewed the emails again in July 2011, he reported "evidence of serious criminal offences" including payments to police.^&91;50&93;
2. Pike, Julian; Partner at Farrer & Co; represented the News Group Newspapers subsidiary of News International during the 2008 settlement negotiations leading to payment of £425,000 plus costs to Gordon Taylor. Pike told the Culture, Media and Sport Committee on 19 October 2011 that he had informed News International of evidence suggesting "a powerful case" could be made that three News of the World journalists had illegally accessed confidential information. News International maintained through 2009 that only Clive Goodman had been involved. Pike also told the Committee that Colin Myler met with James Murdoch on 27 May 2008, after Pike had received a copy of the new evidence which had been emailed by Tom Crone to Myler. This meeting was in addition to Myler's meeting with Murdoch and Crone 10 June 2008. Pike had not reported earlier that senior News International personnel had misled Parliament because of professional obligations to his client. Farrer & Co. also represents Queen Elizabeth II.^&91;51&93; In 2011, Pike advised News International that Mark Lewis and Charlotte Harris should be put under surveillance while they were representing clients suing the company.^&91;37&93; As a result, both of them and their families were followed and video-taped. Pike continued to characterize this apparent attempt to find information with which to discredit opposing solicitors as "unusual" but "justified" and "would do it again tomorrow," even after News International acknowledged that it was "deeply inappropriate."^&91;46&93; Farrer & Co. also wrote to Lewis threatening to enjoin him from accepting more clients that wanted to sue News of the World over phone hacking.^&91;36&93; Pike also discussed the possibility with News International's legal affairs manager, Tom Crone, of making charges of professional misconduct against Lewis and Harris.^&91;34&93; Lewis told the Leveson Inquiry that "News International sought to destroy my life, and very nearly succeeded."^&91;38&93;

Individuals alleging that illegal acquisition of confidential information was widespread

1. Piers Morgan; (2007) former editor of the Daily Mirror, former editor of the News of the World, and former show business editor of the Sun stated that "loads of newspaper journalists were doing it. Clive Goodman, the News of the World reporter, has been made the scapegoat for a widespread practice."^{&91;60&93;&91;61&93;}
2. David Brown; (2007) former reporter for The People who alleged that "reporters on the publisher's Sunday newspaper regularly used phone hacking to get information in the first half of the last decade." The Trinity Mirror which publishes the Mirror and Sunday Mirror, called the claims unsubstantiated allegations of a disgruntled, dismissed employee.^{&91;62&93;&91;63&93;}
3. Andrew Neil; former editor of The Sunday Times and former writer for the Daily Mail; Claimed that phone hacking "was systemic throughout the News of the World, and to a lesser extent The Sun."^&91;64&93;

7. [unnamed New York Times sources]; "A dozen former reporters said in interviews that hacking was pervasive at News of the World. “Everyone knew,” one longtime reporter said. 'The office cat knew'...Andy Coulson talked freely with colleagues about the dark arts, including hacking. 'I’ve been to dozens if not hundreds of meetings with Andy' when the subject came up, said [a] former editor... When Coulson would ask where a story came from, editors would reply, 'We’ve pulled the phone records' or 'I’ve listened to the phone messages.'^&91;66&93;

Individuals who worked for both News International and the police

This is an alphabetical list of individuals who at various times worked for both News International and the Metropolitan Police Service.

1. Andy Hayman was with the Essex Police from 1978 until 1998, when he transferred to the Metropolitan Police Service. He became Chief Constable for the Norfolk Constabulary in 2002 but returned to the Met in February 2005.^&91;70&93; Hayman was in charge of the Royal Household/Goodman Inquiry in 2006. He resigned from the Met in December 2007 during an investigation of reportedly lavish entertainment expenditures for "long lunches and dinners with News of the World journalists at a time when the newspaper was under investigation for phone hacking."^&91;71&93; Two months later he was hired by News International, where he wrote an article for The Times defending the police investigation he led, maintaining that there were “perhaps a handful” of hacking victims.^{&91;66&93;&91;71&93;}
2. Alex Marunchak worked as a freelance Ukrainian language interpreter for the Metropolitan Police Service between 1980 and 2000 while he was also an executive for News of the World, where he worked from 1981 to 2006.

No evidence became public that Marunchak or other journalists had committed criminal offences or that they were aware of how Rees acquired the information.^&91;73&93; Marunchak reportedly arranged for Glenn Mulcaire, then doing work for News of the World, to conduct surveillance on the detective investigating Rees and his partner,Sid Fillery, for murder.^&91;32&93;
3. John Stevens, Baron Stevens of Kirkwhelpington was Met commissioner from 2000 to 2005.
