Former Trump adviser John Bolton indicted on classified documents chargesThe move follows the federal indictments of James Comey and Letitia James. By Pierre Thomas, Katherine Faulders, Luke Barr, Nicholas Kerr, and Alexander Mallin October 16, 2025 Prosecutors say one document listed in the indictment "reveals intelligence about future attack by adversarial group in another country." Others allegedly contain information about foreign partners sharing sensitive information with the U.S. intelligence community; intelligence related to a foreign adversary's missile launch plans; intelligence on leaders of a U.S. adversary; and one that detailed plans of covert action by the U.S. government. The indictment accuses Bolton of abusing his position as national security adviser by sharing "more than a thousand pages" of information in "diary-like entries" about his day-to-day activities with two recipients identified only as "Individual 1" and "Individual 2," who prosecutors say are Bolton's relatives. Prosecutors further allege that Bolton unlawfully retained documents, writing and notes containing national defense information ranging to levels of Top Secret and Sensitive Compartmented Information at his home in Maryland, stored both as paper files and on a number of personal devices. The indictment says that at some point after Bolton left office as national security advisor, a cyber actor believed to be associated with Iran hacked his personal email account and gained access to the classified information he had previously emailed to his relatives. When Bolton reported the hack to U.S. authorities in July of 2021 under the Biden administration, prosecutors say he did not inform them of the allegedly sensitive national security information he shared. abcnews.go.com
