EXCLUSIVE: Robert Birchum, a high-ranking Air Force officer has quietly admitted to retaining hundreds of highly sensitive documents at his Florida home.

after allegedly sending 13 emails containing government secrets to a woman working in the private sector. The case is ongoing., a felony carrying up to 10 years in federal prison. It is unclear what, if anything, he was planning to do with the documents he had on hand.

“Additionally, much of the intelligence and operational information of these commands is within SAP channels, which means the handling requirements for this information are much stricter than they are for TS/SCI,” he said on Monday, noting that these materials are “exceptionally sensitive, from both an operational and an intelligence collection perspective.”

That same day, the feds searched Birchum’s residence, seizing the thumb drive, along with a Dell hard drive, as well as “numerous paper documents containing classified national defense information,” according to the plea. A subsequent review of the material found 135 files marked Top Secret, Top Secret/ACCM , Secret, and/or Confidential.

“A review of that hard drive revealed that the defendant had separately used that hard drive to willfully and unlawfully retain 117 additional files containing classified national defense information; 12 of those files contained information marked as Top Secret, some with ACCM, 98 files contained information marked as Secret, some with ACCM information, and 7 contained information marked as Confidential,” the plea deal states.
