Apparently a 22 year old intelligence analyst by the name of Bradley Manning in Kuwait was arrested for leaking classified information to Wikileaks.
Wikileaks Leaker Arrested
And interesting upon interesting, he was arrested after a former hacker, Adrian Lamo turned him into the FBI because he was afraid of the damage that his leak may cause to American diplomats, spies, and other US forces. It's not the video tape that has the former hacker worried, it's the fact that this individual apparently stole 260,000 diplomatic cables and allegedly sent them to Wikileaks.
When Manning told Lamo that he leaked a quarter-million classified embassy cables, Lamo contacted the Army, and then met with Army CID investigators and the FBI at a Starbucks near his house in Carmichael, California, where he passed the agents a copy of the chat logs. At their second meeting with Lamo on May 27, FBI agents from the Oakland Field Office told the hacker that Manning had been arrested the day before in Iraq by Army CID investigators.
Lamo has contributed funds to Wikileaks in the past, and says he agonized over the decision to expose Manning — he says he’s frequently contacted by hackers who want to talk about their adventures, and he’s never considered reporting anyone before. The supposed diplomatic cable leak, however, made him believe Manning’s actions were genuinely dangerous to U.S. national security.
"I wouldn’t have done this if lives weren’t in danger," says Lamo, who discussed the details with Wired.com following Manning’s arrest. "He was in a war zone and basically trying to vacuum up as much classified information as he could, and just throwing it up into the air."
Worse, apparently the leaker was laissez faire about the whole situation and gloated about giving Hillary Clinton and other diplomats a "heart attack" in regards to their secret information public and being wishful for "world wide anarchy". So, this individual was indeed dangerous and there should be an investigation as to how there was no checking up on this analyst.
