Massachusetts Air National Guardsman Jack Teixeira may have begun leaking classified documents less than 48 hours after Russia invaded Ukraine.

That is according to a new report in the New York Times.

The Times says they are unsure if the Government knows about the latest information.

The paper found a user profile matching Jack Teixeira posting secret intelligence on a Discord chat group in February of 2022.

That group is a different one than the one he was allegedly caught posting on a few weeks ago.

The Times adds officials from the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Justice Department declined to comment on the latest revelation.

Teixeria was arrested in North Dighton earlier this month and is due back in Worcester federal court next week,

As a result of the leak, joint base Cape Cod is no longer performing its assigned intelligence mission as the investigation continues.

This is a developing story. Check back for updates as more information becomes available.
