Biography

U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency counterterrorism analyst convicted under the Espionage Act for leaking classified information about a foreign country's weapons systems to two journalists with whom he had personal relationships. Arrested October 8, 2019 and indicted under 18 U.S.C. §793(d) and (e). Pled guilty June 2020; sentenced to 30 months in federal prison.

2010s audit verified October 12, 2026: The official BOP locator identifies Henry Kyle Frese, register 93821-083, age 37, and reports release October 14, 2022. This establishes a BOP custody endpoint, not the beginning of continuous incarceration or completion of supervised release. No admission day is inferred.

Duration consistency review October 13, 2026: The stored exact day count has been cleared because this case does not have verified day-precision confinement endpoints or an independently documented exact number of days served. Existing approximate durations and sentencing descriptions are retained. No missing date has been guessed.
