    At one point, according to the indictment, Conspirator A offered Schultz more money if a document about U.S. Navy exercises in the Philippine Sea that he provided contained classified information. “I hope so! I need to get my other BMW back!” Schultz allegedly responded.

    received 14 payments totaling $42,000

    Among the information that Schultz provided to Conspirator A, per investigators: documents about the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), information on hypersonic equipment, studies on the future development of U.S. military forces, studies about countries such as China, and summaries of military drills and operations. Schultz is also accused of handing over Air Force manuals related to specific aircrafts and weapons system.

    I love that he gave away all of that information to… buy a repossessed car? A second car? As an E-5 who probably makes like $50k per year at most? None of the news stories about this seem to expand on this BMW line.

    I’m amazed how these dipshits always sell millions of dollars worth of classified info for pennies on the dollar. And then get caught
