[AI-Generated Summary] An investigative report by Eyewitness News reveals that former Army Reserve Captain Jeffrey Jones, previously based in Indianapolis, allegedly compromised national security by selling at least 17 sensitive technical military manuals on eBay and his own commercial website. While the documents were not classified, they were restricted to government use and contained critical flight performance data for aircraft like the F-18 Super Hornet and E6B Prowler that adversaries could use to design countermeasures. The breach was brought to light by whistleblower Captain James Brady, a military intelligence officer who grew concerned after the Army declined to prosecute Jones despite evidence that he had illegally accessed Department of Navy databases under false pretenses. The report sparked significant political outrage, leading Indiana Congressman Dan Burton to call for a congressional investigation through the House Subcommittee on National Security to determine why the Army did not pursue legal action and how to prevent such sensitive data from reaching the public domain.
