She allegedly provided sensitive details, including classified Delta Force tactics and procedures, to a journalist for a 2025 book on Fort Bragg. Courtney Williams is accused of leaking classified information to a journalist for a book and Politico article about alleged misconduct Fort Bragg. CBS News reported: According to the complaint, Williams worked for the Army between 2010 and 2016 after serving as a contractor and previously enlisting, and held a top secret security clearance. Williams left in 2016, after investigators said she had her access to classified information suspended, “based on an internal investigation” conducted in 2015 and 2016. She is charged with one count of illegally communicating or transmitting national defense information, which is punishable by up to 10 years in prison if convicted. Court records show she was arrested Tuesday and was ordered to be temporarily detained in jail ahead of a preliminary hearing on April 13. According to an FBI affidavit included in the complaint, Williams and the reporter “discussed William’s employment at the SMU and associated information” in texts and “consistent and extensive phone conversations.” The affidavit also alleges that Williams “provided documents, photographs, notes, and/or other materials to the Journalist, some of which likely contained classified NDI that was subsequently published in the Article and the Book,” through a removable hard drive and emails in ten document batches. Williams was featured prominently in a Politico article as an on-the-record voice in a story profiling alleged misconduct in Delta Force, a covert military unit where Delta Force is headquartered. That article, by Seth Harp, was adapted from his book, which was to be published shortly after the article. Investigators also said the article includes on-the-record statements from Williams about her time with the unit. Photos of Williams also appear in the report. The FBI affidavit alleges Williams spoke to a reporter on the day the Politico article featuring her was published and says officials overseeing classification of the Special Military Unit “reviewed the information within the Article and determined that it contained information that is properly classified as SECRET.” After the book was published last August, the prosecutors said Williams texted the reporter that she was “concerned with the amount of classified information being disclosed” in the book,” and that she wrote in a text message to her mother that she feared being arrested “for disclosing classified information.” In another text message to someone else, prosecutors allege that Williams said she was “probably going to jail for life” for her alleged disclosures. Though he is not named in the FBI affidavit, the journalist referenced is Seth Harp. By all appearances, Williams was fully aware of what she was doing. She made multiple comments to Harp expressing concerns that she might go to jail for the information she was giving to him. WRAL has more: According to the complaint, Williams spent at least 10 hours on the phone with Harp and exchanged approximately 180 text messages with him between 2022 and 2024. One message from Harp discusses the exchange of data. “Just wanted to let you know I dropped this in the mail today for the thumb drive. It’s stamped and addressed and ready to be sent back, no need to go to the post office!” The complaint also indicates Williams saved documents on her computer with file names “Batch 1 for Reporter,” “Batch 2 for Reporter” and that there were at least 10 batches of documents that Williams intended to provide to Harp, including personnel documents from her time with the Special Military Unit (SMU) While reviewing the article during the investigation, the complaint says it “determined that it contained information that is properly classified as SECRET.” It continues, saying “The classified information comprised, in part, specific Tactics, Techniques & Procedures (TTPs) utilized by this (SMU) to execute sensitive missions.” Harp declined an interview, but provided this statement about the charge against Williams: “Courtney Williams is a brave whistleblower and truth-teller. Former Delta Force operators disclose “national defense information” on podcasts and YouTube shows every day, but the government is going after Courtney for the sole reason that she exposed sexual harassment and gender discrimination in the unit. This is a vindictive act of retaliation, plain and simple.” Harp’s book, “The Fort Bragg Cartel: drug trafficking and murder in the Special Forces,” was released in August 2025. The book details several sexual harassment and discrimination experiences Williams had during her eight years with Delta Force, an elite counterterrorism unit based at Fort Bragg that often operates in secrecy. Harp’s book was issued alongside an article with an excerpt from the book in a Politico article. Harp quotes Williams, and other military members, throughout the article, where she recalls higher-ups massaging her shoulders, making lewd comments about her body and being propositioned for sex. In the complaint, Williams texted Harp about concerns she had about the article. “Other than a few factual errors, I would definitely have been concerned with the amount of classified information being disclosed. I thought the things I was telling you so you could have a better general understanding how the [SMU] was set up or operated would not be published and it feels like an entire TTP was sent out in my name giving them a chance to legally persecute me and probably [Person 1]. The complaint also indicates Williams showed concern to her mother about this, saying, “I might actually get arrested, and I don’t even get a free copy of the book.” Williams indicated her concerns were “for disclosing classified information.” Williams said to her mother, “I have known my entire career… they [the SMU] tell you every day … 100 times a day.” What a traitor!
