Klingon Jailed on Child Porn Now Charged with Leaking TS Information to WikiLeaks

[The Hill] The Justice Department on Monday announced charges against a former CIA computer engineer for allegedly leaking top-secret information on U.S. government hacking tools to WikiLeaks.

In a 13-count superseding indictment, the agency charged Joshua Adam Schulte with illegally gathering classified national defense information and transmitting it to "an organization." WikiLeaks published the data in March of last year.

"Schulte utterly betrayed this nation and downright violated his victims," FBI official William Sweeney Jr. said in the release. "As an employee of the CIA, Schulte took an oath to protect this country, but he blatantly endangered it by the transmission of Classified Information."

Prosecutors identified Schulte as a suspect in the leak last month, but did not yet have sufficient evidence to bring charges.

The Justice Department did not name WikiLeaks in a press release about the indictment, but attorneys involved in a child pornography case involving Schulte revealed earlier this year that the 29-year-old was the focus of an investigation into WikiLeaks’ dispersal of classified CIA information.

Schulte is currently in custody on child pornography charges, and is suspected to be behind the leak of CIA information to WIkiLeaks known as "Vault 7," believed to be one of the largest unauthorized releases of CIA information in history.

The indictment also charges Schulte with lying to investigators, obstruction of justice, theft of government property and transmitting a harmful computer program.

#1 Remember when the CIA claimed Russian hacking due to finding "Russian" malware on infected systems? From Vault 7: CIA can customize the "fingerprints" hacks leave behind and make it look like someone else did it.

The evidence that we've seen for Russia hacking the DNC is this exact "Russian fingerprint" that we now know the CIA had the ability to implement in their hacks to hide their tracks. That fingerprint is now completely shoddy evidence. Not just because the CIA can put a Russian fingerprint on any hack, but because anyone else can too, because the CIA was so Clinton-esque with their security that all the "fingerprints" they collected were leaked to hackers and rogue agents.
So, essentially, any legitimate hacker nowadays could hack the DNC then put Russia's "fingerprint" on the hack. That fingerprint is evidence of absolutely nothing, thanks to these new leaks.

The CIA's Remote Devices Branch's UMBRAGE group collects and maintains a substantial library of attack techniques 'stolen' from malware produced in other states including the Russian Federation.

Not surprised they planted CP on him.
