Sgt. Korbein Schultz, a U.S. Army intelligence analyst, pleaded guilty to multiple charges, including conspiracy to sell sensitive military information to a foreign national linked to the Chinese government. Schultz, who held a top-secret security clearance, was accused of transmitting classified documents related to U.S. military capabilities, including strategies concerning the Ukraine-Russia conflict and Chinese military tactics, for financial gain totaling approximately $42,000. His illegal activities began in June 2022 and continued until his arrest in March 2024. The Justice Department emphasized that Schultz's actions compromised national security and breached his military oath. He faces a potential prison sentence of up to 65 years, with sentencing scheduled for January 23, 2025. Officials warned that this case serves as a reminder of the risks posed by hostile governments targeting U.S. military personnel.
