How do these people avoid being jailed? How do they get a job? How did this guy ever pass a security check?

There needs to be a review of the process used by the DOD to grant top secret security clearances

the charges are often transferred to the military where the individual is then charged under UCMJ. If the charges were before his discharge date I would suspect that is what happened.
