The FBI arrested a former Army employee on charges of leaking classified military information to a journalist, according to federal authorities. Courtney Williams, 40, of North Carolina, was taken into custody on Tuesday and indicted by a federal grand jury on Wednesday.

Williams, who previously worked at Fort Bragg and held top-secret security clearance, is accused of providing classified material to a reporter. Court documents indicate she shared information related to her time working with Delta Force, a military special operations unit.

FBI Director Kash Patel announced the arrest on Wednesday, with the Department of Justice releasing details of the charges in a press release. The case involves allegations that Williams disclosed sensitive military information during her interactions with an investigative journalist.

According to reports, Williams was named in a magazine article that detailed her allegations of harassment and retaliation while working in the covert military unit. The specific classified information allegedly leaked included details about military tactics and operations.

The charges represent the latest case in ongoing federal efforts to prosecute unauthorized disclosures of classified information to the media. Williams faces federal charges under laws governing the protection of national security information.
