Hunt files police report against Cornyn campaign staffer over alleged family 'doxxing' incident
Law enforcement shouldn't be political.
FIRST ON FOX: Rep. Wesley Hunt, who is running in the Republican primary for U.S. Senate in Texas, filed a police report on Tuesday after a senior campaign staffer for one of his GOP opponents posted a 2016 provisional ballot that included personal information about Hunt and his family.
The document included the last four digits of Hunt's Social Security number, his driver's license ID number and a home address.
Matt Mackowiak, who serves as the communications director for Sen. John Cornyn's re-election campaign for U.S. Senate, posted the unredacted documents on his X account last Friday. Cornyn's campaign account then reposted the now-deleted images.
Sources from the Hunt campaign told Fox News Digital that when asked by a law enforcement officer if he would like to press charges, Hunt said yes.

Harris County Constable Mark Herman's office confirmed a report had been filed.
A source from the Hunt campaign told Fox News Digital that law enforcement officials intend to subpoena X to retrieve the deleted post which showed Hunt's personal information.
Hunt accused Mackowiak and the Cornyn campaign of "doxxing" his family in a statement to Fox News Digital.
"The tragic situation involving Savannah Guthrie is a painful reminder of how vulnerable our family truly is," Hunt told Fox News Digital. "They should never be put in harm's way. And yet, that's exactly what happened to my family."

"Despite knowing how dangerous and irresponsible it is to doxx someone’s family, the Cornyn campaign did it to mine," Hunt added. "What happened to my family members should never happen to anyone."
Hunt also said Cornyn had not reached out since the post was published.
"Instead, his campaign’s actions put my family at risk, and they’ve chosen to look the other way," Hunt continued. "I will continue to pursue every legal avenue available to make sure my parents are safe and that those responsible are held accountable."

Mackowiak, president of Potomac Strategy Group, pointed out to Fox News Digital that the documents are public, and that a record request made through the county clerk could provide the provisional ballot. He also pointed to a Daily Mail article, which published the unredacted documents on Saturday, one day after his post on X.
