Honolulu (HawaiiNewsNow) - A military jury has found a Schofield Barracks officer guilty of illegally possessing and passing classified national defense information.

Military prosecutors say Army Maj. Seivirak Inson, 43, attempted to hand over a number of military secrets to members connected to the Cambodian government between 2009 and 2012.

Prosecutors say that Inson -- who is of Cambodian ancestry -- took classified U.S. intelligence reports about the Cambodian military and gave it to unauthorized personnel.

The military jury on Friday evening sentenced Maj. Inson to 10 years in prison, forfeiture of pay and dismissal from the Army. The jury also found Inson guilty of forgery and adultery.

(below are the specifications of those charges)

18 USC 793(d) – Gathering, Transmitting, or Losing Defense Information (Lawful Possession and Delivery)

SPECIFICATION 2: In that Major Seivirak Inson, U.S. Army, did, on the island of Oahu, between on or about 11 September 2009 and 1 January 2012, lawfully having possession of a document relating to the national defense, to wit: an Intellipedia document containing classified intelligence assessments of Cambodia, a document he had reason to believe could be used to the injury of the United States or to the advantage of any foreign nation, willfully delivered the same to a person not entitled to receive it, in violation of 18 U.S. Code Section 793(d), such conduct being prejudicial to good order and discipline in the armed forces and being of a nature to bring discredit upon the armed forces.

Adultery, huh. Gays ok but adultery gets one prosecuted.

If only he'd have fired on his fellow soldiers while shouting, 'Allahu Akbar' instead of revealing secrets, he would still have his pay and could avoid prosecution by refusing to shave his beard.

Also, how many years did Bill and Hill get for giving our secrets to the Chinese?

Interestingly, Inson is a name found almost exclusively in the Philippines.

Hilarious! Obama is trying to make the military a place safe for just moral reprobates and brown-nosers that he can lead against the few remaining Americans that still remember The Constitution.

Meanwhile other countries are infiltrating agents into the armed forces in order to gain a military advantage.

Will those turncoats work with the reprobates when Obama asks them? Or will they turn tail back for their countries of origin?

Perhaps, Mom is the Cambodian, and Dad is of Filipino extraction? Only a guess. Much we do not know.
