An Army intelligence analyst sent information about U.S weapons systems, military operations and more to a person in China for more than a year.
Federal prosecutors have arrested and charged a U.S. Army intelligence analyst who allegedly sold classified military information to a contact in China for more than a year.
According to the indictment, from June 2022 until his arrest, the 24-year-old used his top-secret security clearance to gather blueprints, maps and plans related to the U.S. military's defense systems, later sending the documents to a purported Hong Kong-based geopolitical consultant, identified as Conspirator A in the court filing, in exchange for $42,000.
Court documents state Schultz said he'd continue sending"an abundance of information" to the conspirator, who allegedly told the soldier he would be sent more money for documents that were higher classified.
Just this week, two other U.S. military employees faced charges related to their leaking of classified security documents. On Monday, Massachusetts Air National Guard member Jack Teixeira pleaded guilty to posting sensitive intelligence information on Discord, and on the same day, a U.S. Air Force employee was charged with transmitting classified information about the Russia-Ukraine war on foreign dating site.
