Alleged Air Force leaker shared intel with foreign nationals, FBI says – By Zamone Perez (Military Times) / Aug 10, 2023
A Federal Bureau of Investigation special agent said that some of the intelligence allegedly leaked by indicted Massachusetts Air Force National Guardsman Jack Teixeira was shared with foreign nationals, according to recent court filings.
Special Agent Luke Church said in a sworn statement that Teixeira, a junior enlisted airman with the Massachusetts Air National Guard’s 102nd Intelligence Wing, allegedly leaked documents on the social media platform Discord. The three servers Teixeira allegedly leaked documents in contained more than 150 members, some of which represented themselves as foreign nationals or at least used a foreign IP address.
“You live near [foreign city] yeah?” Teixeira asked a member of the Discord server, according to Church’s declaration.
“[Y]eah,” the user said. “[V]illage next to it.”
