This document is page 4 of a book titled 'How America Lost Its Secrets' (likely by Edward Jay Epstein, given the filename 'Epst...'). It details the June 2013 discovery of the NSA data breach committed by Edward Snowden, his flight to Hong Kong, and the subsequent criminal charges filed against him in the Eastern District of Virginia. The text describes Snowden's video confession and asserts that he stole intelligence regarding foreign adversaries from the NSA, CIA, DOD, and British services, not just domestic surveillance records. The document bears a House Oversight Bates stamp.
