On June 3rd of 2013, Kelley has filed a suit with the Federal government claiming that government investigators breached their privacy rights through unlawfully looking through her private emails and revealing false information about the contents of her communications in the press. Kelley also claimed that the media had made “false and untrue headlines, created a media sideshow” to her detriment, and was also accused of being incorrectly accused of an affair that was not a marriage that was allegedly between Petraeus as well as Broadwell. In November of 2013, Kelley described herself as the “human face” of the harm that could result from government surveillance into the communications from law-abiding people. In the wake from this particular incident Kelley is now an advocate of privacy on the internet and security. According to the lawsuit Kelley as well as her husband filed with FBI, Department of Defense and other government agencies on June 3rd in 2013 “[b]y disclosing the contents of the Kelleys’ emails, by either directly sharing contents of the emails or making statements suggesting that the content of the emails was lurid, government officials served Mrs. Kelley up on a platter to be devoured in a frenzy of salacious speculation regarding the nature of her relationship with Director Petraeus.”
In May 2012, Kelley issued a complaint to the FBI over a series of anonymous stalking e-mails she had received. The threatening emails were traced to Paula Broadwell, the biographer who had an affair with General David Petraeus. Kelley became a focus of media coverage when her name was leaked, tying her to the FBI investigation. On June 3, 2013, Kelley filed a privacy lawsuit against the federal government alleging government officials violated her privacy rights by maliciously leaking her name and unlawfully searching her personal email communications. In November 2013, Kelley described herself as the “human face” of the damage that can be caused by abusive government probing into personal emails and communications of law-abiding citizens.
In 2014, she received the support of two U.S. Congressmen to advocate for stronger privacy rights using her story to “bring awareness to the damages that can be caused by government overreach and unwarranted searches of emails so that history will not repeat itself, and this never happens to another innocent family again.” She has since become a privacy rights advocate and activist for internet security. Her memoir, Collateral Damage: Petraeus, Power, Politics and the Abuse of Privacy seeks to bring awareness to the damage that can be caused by government overreach and unwarranted searches.
In July 2013 Kelley was approached by an Afghan Parliamentarian to start an open dialogue between the government of Afghanistan with the U.S. around the possibility of the departure of U.S. troops after 2014. In response to the request, Kelley declared, “I am honored to resume my focus to promote cross- cultural dialogue and global trust for a peaceful and strategic exit to help our U.S. and Coalition forces transition out of Afghanistan”.

In May 2012, Kelley complained to an FBI investigator of harassing e-mails sent by an anonymous person. In her communication with the FBI, Kelley stated that the e-mails appeared to be an attempt to blackmail General Petraeus. After the threats increased, and included her family’s whereabouts, Kelley filed an official report with the FBI in June 2012; Her complaint of harassing emails she received by the cyber-stalker, Paula Broadwell, led to the FBI’s discovery of CIA Director General David Petraeus’s extramarital affair. The stalker was reported to be Paula Broadwell, mistress of David Petraeus. During the course of the criminal investigation, government officials disclosed Kelley’s name as the victim to the Washington Post, along with the evidentiary emails she provided to the FBI. It was followed by revelations that FBI agents searched “years” of Kelley’s personal e-mails not pertinent or relevant to the case, which was followed by false descriptions of her personal emails by a series of hints to the press about emails between U.S.’s top commander in Afghanistan, General John R. Allen. The accusations sparked an investigation by the Department of Defense, in which the Inspector General’s report concluded the government leaks and accusations were baseless and the email content was not improper. Nonetheless the false accusations stated by government officials, made Kelley a near-daily feature of the media, creating a sideshow at her family’s expense. November 6th, 2013 Kelley penned an Op-Ed in the Wall Street Journal warning against government surveillance by describing herself as the “human face” of the damage that can be caused by government probing into Americans’ personal communications.
