Former CIA Director David Petraeus, whose career was destroyed by an extramarital affair with his biographer, was sentenced on Thursday to two years’ probation and fined $100,000 for giving her classified material while working on the book.
The sentencing came two months after he agreed to plead guilty to a federal misdemeanor count of unauthorised removal of classified material.
Appearing calm, Mr. Petraeus made a brief statement before he was sentenced, apologising “for the pain my actions have caused.”
