A criminal complaint and affidavit for Jack Teixeira, obtained by The Daily Beast, confirmed a series of stories that circulated Thursday when the guardsman was taken into custody during a raid of his Massachusetts home.

, the 21-year-old Massachusetts Air National Guardsman who was arrested Thursday and accused of leaking classified intelligence documents, was arraigned in federal court on Friday as the FBI released new documents providing further insight into his alleged crime.

But that user told the FBI that Teixeira had shared what appeared to be classified information with his friends. Soon enough, he was sharing documents that described troop movements and details on the Russia and Ukraine conflict, including information that was “gathered through classified sources and methods, and contains national defense information,” the affidavit states.

Other evidence that led to Teixeira came from the U.S. government monitoring his activity. According to U.S. government agency logs, Teixeira accessed one government document he allegedly leaked in February of 2023, approximately one day before he posted it on the internet, the court filing states.
