arrested

Jack Douglas Deshara in connection with an investigation into alleged unauthorized removal, retention and transmission of classified National Defense information. Information Invest instigators say the arrest comes after an intense week-long manhunt and less than 24 hours after the Washington Post published an interview with a teenager who said he was part of a group chat with the young man who leaked documents that the teenager did not identify the man, he was a charismatic young man, a man who loved nature, God, who loved shooting guns and racing cars, he saw himself as the leader of this group and, ultimately, He was the leader of this group.

The teen said that starting last fall the man who called himself OG posted hundreds of pages of ranking documents to impress his friends in the invite-only group on Discord, a chat website popular among young gamers. . He wouldn't call a Geo whistleblower in the slightest. I don't think there was a goal or some kind of achievement that I was looking for in sharing these documents, of course there is some anti-government sentiment, but that's no different than most right-wingers today, when the leak story grew, The teenager said, oh wow, it felt like the end was about to say goodbye to the group for the last time just a few days ago, he was just saying that this might be the last year he sees us and he was thanking us for all the good times he had. we spent together and I hoped it would all bypass the Pentagon, which now faces difficult questions about why the 21-year-old airmen had access to such closely guarded secrets.

It is important to understand that we have strict guidelines to safeguard classified and sensitive information. This was a deliberate criminal act. The Secretary The Department of Defense has ordered a review of who has access to classified material and how it is handled, and of course they are still looking at the ongoing issue of how much damage this massive leak of material has caused to George.
