VisitProsecutors Seek 17-Year Sentence for Massachusetts Air National Guardsman Jack Teixeira
Oct 30, 2024, 06:45 PM
Jack Teixeira, a Massachusetts Air National Guardsman, is facing sentencing for leaking classified military documents online. His defense attorneys have requested an 11-year prison term, arguing that this is a fitting punishment for his actions. In contrast, federal prosecutors are pushing for a much harsher sentence of 17 years, describing Teixeira's crimes as a 'breathtaking' betrayal of national security. The leaked documents included sensitive information about the war in Ukraine and were posted to Discord. Prosecutors urged a judge to sentence Teixeira to more than 16 years. Teixeira's sentencing is scheduled for next month.
