Petraeus pleaded guilty to sharing classified information with his mistress
The ex-general was sentenced to two years probation and fined $100,000
Parole deal states he would also have to clear all work travel
Disgraced former general David Petraeus would have to check in with his parole officer before being named secretary of state by Donald Trump.
Petraeus, an ex-four-star general who pleaded guilty in 2015 to sharing classified information with his mistress, Paula Broadwell, is reportedly in the frame to be picked by Trump for the prestigious position.
If he does get the nod from the Donald, Petraeus would have just three days to alert his parole officer about his new job.
The 64-year-old was sentenced to two years' probation and fined $100,000 for sharing classified information with Broadwell.
He would also be required to tell the officer before leaving North Carolina and be subject to warrant-less searches, as well as having all work-related travel cleared in advance, court documents obtained by USA Today reveal.

The author does not know the difference in probation and parole.
a most important and crucial point.
I’ve met the guy during the Iraq war. I was a volunteer at Walter Reed on the amputation ward, ward 57. (I’m still a volunteer there.)
His present was awesome.
And I agree his behavior was disgusting and shocking.
But I might, maybe, be able forgive him for his very selfish indulgences, I will never forgiving for playing footsie with DNC minions. NEVER.
(Most awesome guys I met there....Yogi Berra and our wounded warriors!)
Disgusting and shocking?
Oh please
It was an affair dear not a porn movie
Trump, Giuliani and Gingrich have all had affairs. If we want a squeaky clean personal morality record, Romney’s the best choice. Which just shows that that’s not a good standard to use.
E-mails are not what we need to prosecute Clinton on. It’s the Clinton corruption foundation issue that is the serious charge.
The e-mail ship has sailed. Comey said it’s over. Trump has no desire to force them to reopen it and it may not be an appropriate use of executive power to do so.
Bttt
His affair doesn’t bother me. Sharing classified information does.
It’s illegal and dangerous to a lot of people.
This has got to be a distraction tactic for the media. After all the well-deserved flack that Hillary has gotten for her classified information capers, how can Trump possibly give the job to somebody carrying the same baggage? Have you seen Petraeus’ mistress? Imagine what he would give up to a woman that is good-looking!
Imagine what he would give up to a woman that was good-looking. Petraeus shouldn’t be on anybody’s short-list, please tell me this is a media distraction tactic!

In an exclusive interview with Yahoo Global News Anchor Katie Couric, Edward Snowden says that former CIA Director Gen. David Petraeus — under consideration to be President-elect Donald Trump’s secretary of state — disclosed “information that was far more highly classified than I ever did” and yet never “spent a single day in jail.”

I know the soldier’s at W.R felt betrayed by his antics. Sorry if I find that disgusting. I also believe Shrill belongs in prison.
Not falling for the Clinton excuse “Everybody does it.”
My point was he sided too many times with the left.
We saw two different kinds of Generals. The political wonks and the military soldiers. Petraeus turned out in the end to be in the 1st category.
