"Ex-RCMP Official Sentenced to 14 Years for Leaking Secrets"

Cameron Ortis, the former head of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police intelligence unit, has been sentenced to 14 years in prison for leaking state secrets, violating the country’s Security of Information Act, breach of trust, and fraudulent use of a computer. The charges followed one of Canada’s largest-ever security breaches, and Ortis, who had pleaded not guilty, had already spent three years in jail in pre-trial custody and one additional year on house arrest. His lawyer said he will appeal the decision and seek bail.
