Former US army colonel is accused of having transmitted secret information about the war in Ukraine... on a dating site.
David Franklin Slater, 63, worked as a civilian employee of the US Air Force at the United States Strategic Command. He faces up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Did he knowingly give information to a Ukrainian military source or was he deceived by the prospect of a romantic relationship? The judge to whom he is presented this Tuesday will decide. The previous Jack Teixeira case collides with another, similar to a lesser extent.
