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.
I remember people on Reddit talking about how these young enlisted guys would see their military paychecks and just buy shit right and left not realizing that they can’t actually afford it. So all these sergeants would have brand new expensive cars parked at their barracks (or however that works).
Hopefully by the time they reach Sergeant they have more sense than that.
There definitely is truth to stereotype of privates buying Hellcats at the low low rate of 24.99% APY though…
