New York (AFP) - Jack Teixeira, the US airman accused of leaking top-secret Pentagon documents in an online chat forum, was slapped with additional federal charges on Thursday. The 21-year-old Air National Guard IT specialist allegedly orchestrated the most damaging leak of US classified documents in a decade. A federal grand jury in Boston indicted him on six counts of "willful retention and transmission of classified information relating to the national defense." They each carry sentences of up to 10 years in prison. The charges are in addition to the two counts filed by prosecutors against...

Worcester (United States) (AFP) - The US airman accused of leaking top-secret documents will remain in jail pending trial, a federal judge ruled Friday, after prosecutors argued that he posed an ongoing risk to American national security. Jack Teixeira -- a 21-year-old Air National Guard IT specialist -- allegedly orchestrated the most damaging leak of US classified documents in a decade, posting a trove of highly sensitive information in an online chat forum. The documents, which soon spread across the internet, pointed to US concern over Ukraine's military capacity against invading Russian f...

Washington (AFP) - A US airman accused of leaking top-secret documents received repeated warnings for misusing his access to classified information but was still allowed to keep his high-level security clearance, court filings show. Jack Teixeira, 21, is accused of orchestrating the most damaging leak of US classified documents in a decade, posting a trove of highly sensitive information in an online chat forum, from which they spread across the internet. The documents pointed to US concern over Ukraine's military capacity against invading Russian forces and showed Washington had apparently sp...

Boston (AFP) - A US airman accused of leaking top-secret documents had a history of making "violent" statements and owned numerous weapons, federal prosecutors alleged as a judge heard his request for bail Thursday. The Justice Department also said that 21-year-old Jack Teixeira might still have access to classified documents and that "hostile" nations could aid his escape if he is released from prison. They argued during a detention hearing in Worcester, Massachusetts that Teixeira poses "an ongoing risk" to America's national security and that he should remain in jail until his trial. Teixei...

Washington (AFP) - Jack Teixeira gained a high-level security clearance through his job as an IT specialist just two years after joining the Air National Guard -- a relatively common situation he allegedly exploited to leak top secret US documents. As the US government works to assess the damage from its worst unauthorized revelation of restricted material in a decade, officials face questions over why Teixeira -- a 21-year-old airman first class who has been arrested and charged with mishandling classified information -- had such access at his young age and junior rank. While it is not unusua...

Boston (AFP) - A US national guardsman accused of leaking top secret Pentagon documents was back in court Wednesday as his detention hearing was postponed by two weeks. Jack Teixeira, 21, appeared briefly in federal court in Boston to waive his right to a preliminary hearing. "Yes, your honor," Teixeira, wearing an orange jumpsuit, told the judge when asked if it was his decision to forego the hearing. A separate appearance was delayed after his lawyer said the defense "requires more time to address the issues presented by the government's request for detention." A new date has not yet been se...

Washington (AFP) - China would probably gain air superiority very quickly in any attack on Taiwan, something Russia crucially failed to do in its invasion of Ukraine last year, leaked US intelligence documents show, according to media reports Saturday. The classified documents, allegedly leaked by a US national guardsman in the worst US security breach in a decade, reveal that Taiwan's military leaders doubt their air defenses can "accurately detect missile launches," while only about half of their aircraft are capable of effectively engaging the enemy. China views democratic, self-ruled Taiwa...

Boston (AFP) - A young national guardsman was charged Friday with orchestrating the most damaging leak of US classified documents in a decade, as the government signaled it intends to make an example of the 21-year-old. Jack Teixeira was arrested Thursday following a week-long probe into the leak of documents -- which unveiled US concern over Ukraine's ability to fend off the Russian invasion, and showed Washington has spied on allies Israel and South Korea. It is the biggest such breach since the 2013 dump of National Security Agency documents by Edward Snowden and raises tough questions abou...

New York (AFP) - Described as a patriot by friends and coming from a family boasting decades of military service, Jack Teixeira seems an unlikely trigger for the largest US espionage scandal in decades. But the low-ranking national guardsman who possessed top secret security clearance at a young age is accused of being just that, and faces years in prison if convicted of leaking dozens of classified documents. The portrait painted in the US media by people who know Teixeira is more one of a naive young man seeking to impress friends than a crusading whistleblower intent on blowing open America...

Washington (AFP) - A 21-year-old national guardsman was due to appear in court on Friday, authorities said, after he was arrested on suspicion of leaking a trove of sensitive US government secrets. Jack Teixeira, an employee of the US Air Force National Guard, was to make an initial appearance in a Massachusetts federal court, a district court official told AFP. His dramatic arrest was broadcast live on US TV networks Thursday following a week-long investigation into one of the most damaging leaks of classified information since the 2013 dump of National Security Agency documents by Edward Sno...
