A Navy sailor entered a guilty plea Friday in a classified information mishandling case that critics charge illustrates a double standard between the treatment of low-ranking government employees and top officials like former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and ex-CIA Director David Petraeus.

Prosecutors allege that Petty Officer First Class Kristian Saucier used a cellphone camera to take photos in the classified engine room of the nuclear submarine where he worked as a mechanic, the USS Alexandria, then destroyed a laptop, camera and memory card after learning he was under investigation.

I'm guessing that's not allowed....

In order to have an accountable government, higher ups must be held to a higher standard.

When higher ups are held to a lower standard, you have tyranny.

No, he never distributed them, and no one alleges he intended to do so.

He sounds like he wouldn't be a good risk on a sub, btw.

Federal guidelines discussed in court Friday appear to call for a sentence of about five to six-and-a-half years

What is the federal guideline for Hillary's actions, omissions and gross negligence?

Is it fair to assume that cell phone to cp network connections are weak while in a sub?

The double standard is so in-your-face that it’s not even questioned. And of course, having an “unregistered” gun is the worst possible... what does that even mean? None of my guns are registered. This sounds like some local city ordinance, rather than a federal one.

There is no double standard or comparison. The military has higher standards compared to the rest of .gov.

“No, he never distributed them, and no one alleges he intended to do so.”

Unless someone hacks his phone. I’m surprised he was even allowed to take his cell phone on the boat, or at least into controlled spaces.
