CNN —The suspect in the leak of classified Pentagon documents posted on social media 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. According to charging documents, Teixeira held a top secret security clearance and allegedly began posting information about the documents online around December 2022, and photos of documents in January.

Four Discord users active in a different Discord chatroom where the documents later appeared told CNN the documents began circulating on Thug Shaker. Several former high school classmates of Teixeira’s told CNN Thursday that he had a fascination with the military, guns and war.
☆ After wasting thousands of taxpayer dollars, one Massachusetts school finally turns off its lights — left on for over a year
  + stars: | 2023-02-24 | by ( Bethany Biron | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
A Massachusetts school finally can turn off its lights, which have been on since August 2021 due to a technical glitch. "We are very much aware this is costing taxpayers a significant amount of money," a school official told NBC. Reflex Lighting, the company contracted to fix the lights, arrived at the school this week to reprogram the faulty system and begin turning off the lights, NBC Boston reported. Part of the issue was that ownership of the software company changed several times after the initial installation, according to NBC. "And yes, there will be a remote override switch so this won't happen again," Paul Mustone, president of Reflex Lighting, told NBC.
☆ A Massachusetts high school hasn't been able to turn off the lights for more than a year and a half, costing taxpayers thousands

"We are very much aware this is costing taxpayers a significant amount of money," a school official told NBC. Approximately 7,000 lights inside Minnechaug Regional High School have remained on since August 24, 2021, when the software operating the lighting system failed, NBC News reported. Part of the issue was that ownership of the software company changed several times after the initial installation, according to NBC. But the new owner, Reflex Lighting, said it couldn't send contractors until the following year due to the pandemic. "And yes, there will be a remote override switch so this won't happen again," Paul Mustone, president of Reflex Lighting, told NBC.
