MIAMI (AP) — A Florida man has been sentenced to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to stealing classified documents while working at a U.S. military base in Honduras.

U.S. District Judge Kenneth Marra sentenced 34-year-old Christopher Glenn of West Palm Beach last week for violating the espionage and computer fraud acts.

According to court records, Glenn’s crimes occurred while working as a computer systems administrator at Soto Cano Air Base in Honduras. He pleaded guilty in January to willful retention of classified defense information, computer intrusion and conspiracy to commit naturalization fraud.

Glenn conspired with his wife, 28-year-old Khadraa A. Glenn, to commit naturalization fraud for her benefit by fabricating documents and submitting them to the immigration services. She previously pleaded guilty to naturalization fraud conspiracy and was sentenced in October.

[Editor’s note: the AP report omits that Khadraa Glenn was an Iraqi-born citizen of Australia.]
