They didn’t need weapons.
Just keyboards, servers — and a plan to destabilize democracy.

In this episode of Fugitive Files, we examine the case of Seyyed Mohammad Hosein Musa Kazemi and Sajjad Kashian, two Iranian nationals charged with orchestrating a widespread cyber campaign targeting the 2020 U.S. presidential election. According to the FBI and U.S. prosecutors, the duo used stolen voter data, phishing schemes, and coordinated misinformation to sow distrust and influence American voters.

Working on behalf of Iranian interests, they allegedly infiltrated voter systems, impersonated far-right extremist groups, and sent threatening emails to thousands of Americans.

  • Unauthorized access to protected computers

  • Voter intimidation

  • Interstate threats

This is Fugitive Files. Let’s get into it.
