Former FBI Agent Pleads Guilty To Leaking Secrets to the Associated Press
McGruber writes "Today, Former FBI agent Donald John Sachtleben has agreed to plead guilty to leaking secret government information about a bomb plot to the Associated Press. In May, Sachtleben agreed to plead guilty to unrelated charges of possessing and distributing child pornography, and to pay restitution to an identified victim portrayed in the images and videos he allegedly possessed."
The deal includes a prison sentence of three years and seven months, and "If accepted by a judge, the prison sentence would be the longest ever handed down in a civilian court for a leak of classified information to a reporter."
Respect can be lost, but fear sticks around.
And that is exactly what the sons of bitches who are behind the
curtain ( the ones who pull the strings that make Obama move )
are interested in : making sure Americans are terrified to speak
out.
They're pissed about the press leaks and out for blood, so he gets the longest ever sentence for leaking classified information.
But the kiddie porn charges? Nah, just pay a fine.
Wow.
Please. The kiddie porn charges were to merely get him to enter a plea and move this along.
Doesn't take a card-carrying FBI agent to Scooby Doo that bullshit. It's called a pressure point, and a rather effective one too, as you can see.
This will get you started.
Why is it that stupid people like you always assume the US must be compared to the USSR
when there are questions about the US ?
Maybe it's because your stupid ass has never traveled outside the US and because your
daddy who bought the old double-wide trailer you live in was a member of the John Birch Society ?
There are many other countries in the world which are far less repressive than
the US or Russia.
Denmark, Switzerland, Germany, Sweden, and France are good examples.
The US is far from the best country in the world. One of the best strategies for choosing
a country is to avoid any countries which are attempting or even pretending to be a serious
power in the geopolitical sense. That means Russia, China, and the US are out. For an
intelligent person there are metrics which show the US is not even close to the top of the
list of best countries to live in. One example is the number of prisoners per capita. The US
is either at the top of that list or near the top, which is not what anyone with decent intelligence
would expect from a country which was supposed to be so wonderful.
So fuck you and your ignorant redneck brain-dead bullshit.
