..."Mr Caldwell's lawyer, Thomas Plofchan, said the defendant worked as section chief for the FBI from 2009 to 2010 after retiring from the Navy as part of a motion urging the judge to release him from jail while he awaits trial.
The defense said Mr Caldwell, who has denied being part of the Oath Keepers, has held a top-secret security clearance since 1979, which required multiple special background investigations, according to Mr Plofchan.
Mr Caldwell also ran a consulting firm that did classified work for the US government, the lawyer said. "
