The Justice Dept. appears to be going out of it's way to
minimize his punishment, saying only a 3 year revocation.
That, on top of a measly 10 grand fine, instead of the
hundred grand allowed, AND no jail time, is an OBVIOUS
slap on the wrist for a serious crime.
The question is WHY?

I don't know....

but he won't be getting his security clearance back. He won't pass the investigation. That is the point of my posts.

He should be in jail. Depending on what was destroyed, he should have been looking at a treason statute too...

There must have been a trade.
Berger dawdled on his plea (and his cooperation) because he was gambling that Kerry would win the election and everything would (of course) "go away". Kerry lost, yet Berger gets this measely wrist slap? There HAD to be a trade.
