A woman claimed on Twitter to have spoken with a member of the grand jury about whether officer Darren Wilson should face criminal charges for shooting Michael Brown.
A Twitter account that raised questions of jury misconduct may not have been deleted, but rather migrated to another handle.
Twitter user @smde7763, named in her profile as Susan Nichols, contained a number of the same tweets as @thesusannichols, the user who cast doubt on the confidentiality of the grand jury considering whether Officer Darren Wilson should face charges for shooting Michael Brown.
Both accounts showed a number of conversations relating to protests in Ferguson, Missouri as well as messages of support to Wilson. The @smde7763 profile does not contain the tweet that prompted an investigation into the grand jury proceedings. The most recent tweet was dated Wednesday.
The Missouri woman behind @thesusannichols told reporters that she must have been hacked, CNN reported.
She said she had not used Twitter in months, and she did not know anyone sitting on the grand jury considering whether Officer Darren Wilson should face charges for shooting Michael Brown.
County prosecutors are continuing to investigate whether anyone on the jury has breached confidentiality.
