Naval Cheater Snitch Scandal Explodes Archives Privacy Fail
Oh boy, gather round the Capitol Comedy Circuit! On April 2025, the National Archives held an unplanned strip-tease of Rep. Mikie Sherrill's (D-N.J.) military records. The National Personnel Records Center, apparently lacking a basic 'redact all sensitive info' button, unleashed full files including Sherrill's Social Security, home addresses, and life insurance details to Nicholas De Gregorioâan ally of her rival Jack Ciattarelli, making this race the ultimate reality TV binge. Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries demanded a criminal investigation, calling Sherrill a Naval Academy dropout of the 1994 class who heroically refused to snitch on cheating classmates. Meanwhile, the NPRC blames a 'technician error' and apologized, while the FBI, White House, and Ciattarelliâs campaign play classic Cold Shoulder. Who knew Freedom of Information could turn into Freedom of Overshare?

When your military file has less redaction than a toddler's coloring book, you know things went sideways. Sherrillâs Naval Academy no-snitch dropout cheat saga is now a security nightmare and a political drama worthy of prime time.
If leaking a military file was an Olympic sport, the National Archives just took gold for 'Most Overshare.' Episode 1994 Naval Academy dropout who wouldnât snitch: now starring in espionage-level privacy breaches.
Jack Ciattarelliâs campaign got a surprise gift: the full creepy dossier of Mikie Sherrillâs life, thanks to an Archives team apparently playing FOIA roulette. Naval Academy remembers, and so does everyone else now.
