Air Force leadership warned about Pentagon leaker but let him continue working, raising concerns.

Newly released memos reveal that Air Force leadership repeatedly warned Airman 1st Class Jack Teixeira about inappropriately accessing classified intelligence, but he was allowed to continue sharing classified information for months. Teixeira has been charged under the Espionage Act with unauthorized retention and transmission of national defense information and unauthorized removal of classified information and defense materials. Defense personnel are alarmed at how he retained his security clearance despite the warning signs. The memos were released as part of the prosecution’s argument in favor of keeping him detained pending trial.
