Accused US leak suspect repeatedly mishandled classified documents.
TL;DR Summary
The suspect charged with leaking top-secret military documents was warned by superiors multiple times about his “deep diving” into highly classified materials, but still managed to keep his job. Prosecutors told the judge in their filing that Teixeira continued leaking documents even after he was admonished by superiors on two separate occasions last year over “concerning actions” he took related to classified information. Teixeira is accused of sharing highly classified documents about top national security issues in a chatroom on Discord, a social media platform that started as a hangout for gamers.
