48 months------For selling out the country? He should lose his citizenship and be shipped to China if he loves them more than USA. Then he should be fined 10 times what he was paid for the classified documents. Actually, maybe just the death penalty would work.
4 Years? I’d have preferred 40. But it’s not exactly unexpected.
The U.S has historically for whatever reason regularly let spy’s, traitors, and other assorted people off extraordinarily lightly. Going back to the founders day.
To the point where the people the general public knows widely about. We only know about because they were harshly punished so it was considered more noteworthy.
Federal , club Fed … don’t Forget, he’ll only do half of that and other time will be deleted for stuff like finishing a cooking class or completing a course with certificate, for how to properly bathe dogs etc .
...He was paid to use a covert communication device to take pictures of CLASSIFIED documents containing national defense information and then send them to individuals he believed worked for the Chinese government. Schena’s actions directly undermined U.S. national security and put Americans at risk.
No amount of money is worth betraying your country, and the FBI will do EVERYTHING in our power to bring traitors like Schena to justice.
I’d like to thank @FBIWFO
, @FBIRichmond
, DOJ’s Office of Enforcement Operations, and DOS’ Diplomatic Security Service’s Office of Counterintelligence for their great work safeguarding our country’s most sensitive information.
To all the current and past U.S. government clearance holders out there, the threat is REAL. Please remain vigilant against China’s aggressive attempts to target you and report all suspicious contacts to the FBI.
After looking at "SOME" of the comments, I postulate a theory: This could be setting up the Chinks for a REVERSE STING OPERATION where they start coming out of the "woodwork" and the US Gov is using this idiot to do just that!!!!!!! I would hazard a guess that there are many more on the block, and we just don't know it yet!!!!!!!!
It's a nice win,but 20 years would be nicer.
Perhaps he talked?
Very possible,that seamed very light.

Wow. That's a very light sentence.
In my world we execute Traitors by firing squad and leave their carcasses for the rats.

This right here is why doomers exist. After decades of nothing happening, finally arrests start and they are paid vacations.
Will this be 48 months at a Club Fed, or at a real prison?

He cooperated. More arrest wil follow
It was probably a sting operation by the FBI.
48 months is not a deterrent to other would be traitors to our country. What happened to the death sentence for traitors? That's a deterrent.

God bless America, and all those who defend Her.
Spelled years wrong.
48 months for a treasonous act seems a little light to me since J6ers got more time than that for standing up for America. IMO
ONLY 4 years??? That sentence doesn't show much concern for the treasonous act of of selling out your country and your countrymen. Disgraceful.
I thought treason was death penalty. 🫤

But stay tuned!!!!!!
