Mentions of Guilty Pleas and Sentencing Recommendations

The Air National Guardsman, Jack Tashira, pleaded guilty to multiple charges under the Espionage Act and faces a recommended 17-year prison term after leaking highly classified military documents. The plea agreement is yet to be formally accepted by the judge. Tashira, a cyber transport system specialist, breached his duty and trust by sharing classified information. In a separate case, Allen Weisselberg, the former Trump Organization CFO, pleaded guilty to perjury charges and had already served a five-month sentence for tax fraud.
