Ex-Delta Force Operator Arrested for Alleged Leak of Classified Military Secrets

Courtney Williams, a former Delta Force soldier, was arrested for allegedly sharing classified defence information with a journalist. She served in the US Army’s special operations unit from 2010 to 2015 and signed a non-disclosure agreement covering sensitive material. Prosecutors say phone records show repeated contact between Williams and writer Seth Harp from 2022 to 2026. If convicted, she faces a significant prison term. Government officials, including a senior security adviser, have warned that leak investigations are ongoing. Williams denies any wrongdoing. She claims she believed the shared information would help the public understand internal issues. Harp defends her as a whistleblower who exposed alleged harassment within the unit. Authorities say the case remains under active investigation. Further hearings are expected as the FBI emphasizes its commitment to protecting national security.
