EOFI - Elements of Friendly Information. This is when bits and pieces that are considered not top secret could still, when put together with other pieces of information, could allow someone to piece it together and eventually learn something that is top secret. Regardless, she took an oath to protect the top secret information. But, what she also did was search for it when it wasn't something she needed access to at the time.
Getting a top secret security clearance requires an extensive background check which includes family background check, character references, as well as an extensive financial/credit history check to ensure you are not in financial trouble, which could make you a mark for bribary to sell information.
In this particular case, she printed out, emailed to a private email account (doing just as her mentor Hillary did), and then emailed the top secret document to the news service. She violated the U.S. Code Title 18 Part I Chapter 37 793.

This particular paragraph pretty much sums up she broke this US Code:
(b) Whoever, for the purpose aforesaid, and with like intent or reason to believe, copies, takes, makes, or obtains, or attempts to copy, take, make, or obtain, any sketch, photograph, photographic negative, blueprint, plan, map, model, instrument, appliance, document, writing, or note of anything connected with the national defense
Now, maybe it may not have anything to do with the national defense, but it could. It was top secret for a reason. What about the sailor who took selfies on a 20-year-old submarine? He was put in prison even though it was an innocent mistake. In this case, this was not innocent. If it was, she was an idiot but since she served in the same branch of the armed services I served in (and I had top secret security clearance), I have to assume she knew what she was doing.
And now both her and her mom are afraid she'll be made an example of, and possibly made to disappear? Wow. Talk about conspiracy theories, but if you take a look at what she posted on social media, it fits her narrative. But, considering what she wrote on her social media accounts, I'm surprised she was even allowed to work with a Top Secret security clearance. That is usually a big red flag for jobs like this.
