Quote:Despite growing skepticism that her personal Twitter account was hacked by someone who randomly “favorited” two controversial tweets, the office of Baltimore City state’s attorney Marilyn Mosby is sticking to its story.

“She said she did not favorite those, so she took the necessary measures to make sure her account is secure,” Mosby spokeswoman Rochelle Ritchie told The Daily Caller on Friday.

On Wednesday, TheDC reported that Mosby seemingly favorited two May 6 tweets from her personal Twitter account. One tweet called the officers charged in the Freddie Gray case “those 6 THUG cops.” The other tweet praised Mosby’s handling of the case and asserted that she “INFURIATES a certain kind of white person.”[…]

After TheDC’s report, Fox’s Megyn Kelly reported that Mosby claimed she did not favorite the tweets and instead that her account was hacked.

But the so-called Twittershpere wasn’t buying it.

Users of the social media platform said Mosby was lying about the hack. Many compared the excuse to one offered by Anthony Weiner, the former Democratic congressman from New York who was forced to admit he lied in 2011 about someone hacking his account to send a racy photo to a 21-year-old woman.

Mosby has no solid evidence that her account was hacked, and she has been able to access her account without a hitch. She apparently assumed that a hack occurred because the tweets had been favorited and also because the Baltimore City state’s attorney Twitter account was hacked last week.

“We don’t know exactly when the account was hacked,” Ritchie told TheDC of Mosby’s personal account.
