John Bolton Indicted for Mishandling Classified Information

John Bolton has been indicted on multiple counts of violating the Espionage Act for allegedly transmitting and retaining classified national defense information, with potential penalties of up to 10 years in prison per count. The charges stem from the investigation into his possession of classified records, including some related to weapons of mass destruction and military strikes, though Bolton's attorneys argue he did nothing wrong and that the records were unclassified or personal.
