Wall Street Journal: Ex-Intelligence Analyst Charged With Leaking Classified Information to the Intercept
Daniel Hale faces five criminal counts for allegedly providing information about U.S. counterterrorism operations.
A former U.S. intelligence analyst was arrested and charged with providing classified information to a reporter at the Intercept in 2014 about U.S. counterterrorism operations including against al Qaeda, amid a widening U.S. crackdown on media leaks.
Daniel Hale, who is 31 years old, provided the reporter with 17 documents he obtained while working for Leidos, a defense contractor, prosecutors alleged in an indictment obtained in March and unsealed Thursday. The information Mr. Hale shared included documents about terrorism suspects, a presentation outlining U.S. military technical capabilities, and the effects of a U.S. military campaign targeting al Qaeda, the indictment alleged.
An attorney for Mr. Hale couldn’t be reached for comment. A representative for Leidos said the company “is deeply committed to protecting customer information” and that it will continue to fully support the investigation.
