Ex-Army employee with top-secret clearance indicted for leaking defense info to journalist

The FBI arrested Courtney Williams, 40, of North Carolina, and a federal grand jury indicted her for allegedly transmitting classified national defense information to unauthorized recipients—including a journalist—while she worked for a U.S. Army Special Military Unit and held a Top Secret/SCI clearance; communications with the journalist from 2022–2025 helped lead to published book and article naming her with some disclosed material, and she also disclosed on social media. The case is being prosecuted under 18 U.S.C. 793(d) by AUSA Logan Liles and the National Security Division, with FBI Charlotte leading the investigation. An indictment is an accusation and defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty.

FBI probes ex-counterterrorism official Joe Kent amid Iran-war resignation fallout

The FBI has opened an inquiry into Joe Kent, the former director of the National Counterterrorism Center who resigned over the Iran war, for possibly leaking sensitive intelligence; the probe predates his resignation and follows a pitched political clash with Trump. Kent had argued Iran posed no imminent threat and suggested Israel influenced U.S. actions, a stance that intensified GOP divisions and drew Trump’s public rebuke, with Kent later appearing on Tucker Carlson's program.
