A former contractor working with the National Security Agency will plead guilty to stealing huge amounts of classified data in what some experts believe is the largest such theft in U.S. history.
Harold Martin will plead guilty to one count of “willful retention of national defense information” after it was discovered he had been stealing secrets for twenty years.
Authorities said they seized 50 terabytes of data from Martin’s home, which officials said could be the biggest theft of classified information in U.S. history.
The government has not said what, if anything, Martin did with the stolen data.
He faces up to 10 years in prison on the single count. Martin has not struck a plea deal with prosecutors and could still be tried on the remaining 19 counts in the indictment, the court filings said.
