Politico update on DIA employee charged with 'leaking classified to journalist'
|
[Politico] A member of the intelligence community has been arrested and charged with leaking classified government information to two journalists, the Department of Justice announced Wednesday.
Police arrested Henry Frese,
| ...or, when his mother is displeased with him, Henry Kyle Frese... |
a 30-year-old counterterrorism analyst for the Defense Intelligence Agency, on Wednesday morning as he arrived at work, officials said. He’s been charged with two counts of willful transmission of national defense information, each of which carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison.
| As was pointed out yesterday, the first journalist, his girlfriend, CNBC national security reporter Amanda M. Macias, was given information about China’s missiles on the Spratly Islands. |
According to an indictment unsealed in the Eastern District of Virginia, Frese accessed multiple intelligence reports unrelated to his duties at the agency and provided information from those reports with classifications ranging from secret to top secret to two journalists from affiliated national news outlets. Authorities said that Frese appeared to have been in a romantic relationship with one of the journalists at the time.

Law enforcement received a court order in late August to surveil Frese's cell phone, and were able to trace hundreds of phone calls and texts between Frese and the reporters, during some of which the classified information was referenced. The last communication between Frese and either journalist came as recently as Monday, according to a search warrant affidavit unsealed Wednesday.
"Frese was caught red-handed disclosing sensitive national security information for personal gain," John Demers, assistant attorney general for national security, said in a news release announcing the charges, calling the disclosures "a betrayal that risked harming the national security of this country."
