An earlier version of this column incorrectly stated a former Army lieutenant colonel was recently sentenced for illegal retention of classified documents. He is a former Air Force lieutenant colonel. This version has been updated.

Andrew Weissmann, a law professor at New York University, previously served as general counsel

of the FBI and as a senior prosecutor in the special counsel investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election. Ryan Goodman, a former special counsel at the Defense Department, is a law professor at New York University and co-editor-in-chief at Just Security.
