Sgt Korbein Schultz was allegedly paid $42,000 in exchange for dozens of sensitive security data.

A US Army analyst has pleaded guilty to charges of conspiring to sell military secrets to China, the Department of Justice (DOJ) has said.

Sgt Korbein Schultz was arrested in March after an investigation by the FBI and US Army counterintelligence alleged that he was paid $42,000 (£33,000) in exchange for dozens of sensitive security records.

The criminal conspiracy began in June 2022 and continued up until his arrest, officials said.

    Whenever I read something like this, I think about that and wonder why there is still no meaningful prosecution whatsoever.

        Yes, that is apparently pretty much what the supreme court says. But unfortunately at least Thomas and Alito are obviously corrupt as well.
