During the short hearing, Jack Teixeira was informed that he is facing two charges for allegedly posting classified documents online.
The two charges are unauthorized retention and transmission of national defense information and unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or material, according to court documents.
The judge scheduled a detention hearing for Teixeira on Wednesday. He will remain detained until then. Teixeira did not enter a formal plea.
Teixeira spoke quietly during the hearing, whispering “yes” as the judge informed him of his rights as a criminal defendant.
As the hearing ended, a man in the courtroom shouted, “love you, Jack.” Teixeira did not look back, but responded, “you too, dad.”
