Legal expert Jonathan Turley has indicated that former National Security Advisor John Bolton could face between five to 20 years in prison as a result of an ongoing FBI investigation. The probe reportedly centers on allegations that Bolton mishandled national defense information, potentially involving classified material found at his Maryland residence. Turley emphasized that possession of national defense information carries a heightened potential penalty, with sentences typically ranging from five to 20 years, and noted that simply having classified information could result in a prison term of around 10 years. The investigation is described as serious, with Bolton potentially facing a decade or more behind bars if convicted.
