NSA translator Reality Winner leaked a single classified document to The Intercept showing Russian military intelligence attempted to hack US voting software companies before the 2016 election. She received 5 years and 3 months — the longest sentence ever imposed for an unauthorized disclosure to the media. By contrast, General Petraeus received probation for sharing highly classified information with his biographer/mistress, and Sandy Berger received a fine for stealing classified documents from the National Archives.
Reality Winner received the longest sentence ever for an unauthorized disclosure — for leaking evidence of Russian election interference
