I sort of thought the same thing. I thought twenty-five was a bit young to have such clearance. Her life is over. Even though this is a minor leak (It's not like she's telling everyone where our submarines are), she will go to jail, and have a felony conviction on her record for the rest of her life.
The one thing I found really interesting was the speed of how this was released. Within hours of publication of the leak, they had already arrested her. I am guessing here but... Seems they looked at the six people who had access to this information and then looked at their email and discovered she had a connection to this newspaper. That is interesting in itself, but what is more interesting to me is that there are other leaks and it seems they cannot figure out who they are. This kid - Reality Winner - is just a kid. Who ever is leaking out other information is pro and will never be caught.
