A former CIA software engineer accused of stealing a massive trove of the agency’s hacking tools and handing it over to WikiLeaks was convicted of only minor charges Monday, after a jury deadlocked on the more serious espionage counts against him
NEW YORK — .
After they were instructed to resume deliberations Monday, jurors sent a note saying they were “extremely deadlocked.” Juror Alexis Anthony said she never thought the evidence was strong enough to convict Schulte of espionage-related charges.Prosecutors portrayed Schulte as a disgruntled software engineer who exploited a little-known back door in a CIA network to copy the hacking arsenal without raising suspicion, in what was said to be the largest leak in CIA history involving classified information.
Schulte had left the agency on stormy terms after falling out with colleagues and supervisors, and prosecutors described the leak as an act of revenge.
