Ultimately you're responsible to her and FOR her, so I believe you're within your rights to look at the diary and the computer. You're doing what you have to as a parent to protect the child you love.

Also, I would suggest that if you and your wife haven't already, consider birth control of some type. If she's having sex at this age, it's not a leap to figure that she'll do it when she gets older.
Mamab... your reasoning is pretty close to my wife's on this matter. She has used similar analogies to get me change my mind about looking at Jill’s private thoughts.
