Jack Teixeira's lawyer has filed a motion to be withdrawn as Teixeira’s counsel.
The Air National Guardsman accused of leaking classified documents online is due back in court on Friday.
Teixeira is accused of sharing classified military documents on Discord, a social media platform popular with people playing online games. The stunning breach exposed to the world unvarnished secret assessments on Russia’s war in Ukraine, the capabilities and geopolitical interests of other nations and other national security issues.The judge said the case represented “a profound breach of the defendant's word that he would protect information related to the security of the United States.
The judge indicated that he found persuasive prosecutors' arguments that U.S. adversaries who might be interested in mining Teixeira for information could facilitate his escape. Superiors of the Massachusetts Air National Guard member charged with leaking highly classified military documents had raised concerns internally on multiple occasions about his handling or viewing of classified information.
