Former NSA contractor gets 5 years in prison for leaking Russian probe documents

A former contractor for the National Security Agency was sentenced to prison Thursday for leaking classified information about the Russian hacking to the media. Reality star Leigh Winner, 25, was sentenced to five years in prison after pleading guilty in June to leaking top secret documents, according to the Associated Press.
