crime in my eyes. But we've got some soft prosecutors around here:
The plea agreement recommends that Prouty face a prison sentence between six and 12 months, and pay a maximum fine of $250,000. The documents also indicate Prouty will be on supervised release for two to three years after serving her sentence.
6-12 months for taking classified documents? How about life imprisonment? How about 20 years? What the hell is going on in the FBI and CIA that taking classified information deserves such a slap on the wrist for?
This is the same thing when Sandy Berger took classified 9/11 documents and got a meager slap on the wrist as well.
Taking classified documents needs to have the punishment raised up to the seriousness that it really is.
She passed it onto Hezbollah, a known terrorist group. Had she done the same for Al-Qaeda, people would be asking for her head.
What I'd also like to know is what are the techniques being used to keep this information from being taken in the first place? I know my network policies that I have in place make it impossible for anyone to take copies of information outside of the company without my knowledge. I fail to see why they didn't have something like this in the first place as well.
