NextImg:Pentagon leaker Jack Teixeira gets 16 years in prison after admitting he released secret military docs on Russia-Ukraine war

The Massachusetts Air National guard member who leaked troves of classified military documents and posted them online in a case considered one of the most serious US national security breaches in recent years agreed to accept a 16-year sentence on Monday.

Jack Teixeira, who was 21 at the time of his arrest in April 2023, was accused of abusing his security clearance and leaking top-secret Pentagon documents and sharing them on the social media and gaming app Discord.

The documents were then widely shared.
