The former roommate of a woman accused of hacking Capital One and at least 30 other organizations has pleaded guilty to illegally possessing firearms, according to federal prosecutors.

Park Quan, 67, pleaded guilty on Friday in U.S. District Court in Seattle to being a felon in possession of guns, according to U.S. Attorney Brian Moran.

Police in Mountain View, California, said she also threatened to shoot up an undisclosed company while she was living with Quan, who had a stockpile of pistols, rifles and ammunition.

During the search of Thompson's home, they found weapons in a bedroom used by Quan.

Quan was convicted in 1983 of being a felon in possession of explosives and was convicted in 1991 in Texas of having an unregistered machine gun.
