Fox News
Massachusetts Air National Guard member Jack Teixeira, who was accused of leaking classified military documents on Discord, will remain in custody before his trial.
During Friday's hearing in Worcester, Massachusetts, U.S. Magistrate Judge David Hennessy explained his reasoning by citing Teixeira's past disturbing online statements and a "fascination with guns".
Hennessy also noted that Teixeira was previously admonished by his bosses for not handling sensitive information properly.
The judge called the leak "a profound breach of the defendant’s word that he would protect information related to the security of the United States."
