So it’s either A:
Or B:
I choose B, but hey, you know better because of some random BBC article and an ABC hit piece
ABC : [which I’m sure is also oversimplified, poorly worded for an international audience]
"He spent months staying back at night gathering secret files from his work computer, compiling an internal complaint about the ADF leadership alleging that SAS soldiers were being wrongly accused and illegally investigated for war crimes.
“If there is political bullshit going on against soldiers, and it doesn’t matter whether they’re SAS or not, you need to stand up for it,” McBride says.
His complaint was dismissed."
"McBride fled to Spain, leaving his two young daughters with his ex-wife Sarah in Canberra. He also left behind four plastic tubs filled with classified documents in a lounge room cupboard at his apartment.
In his absence, the AFP conducted a search and found the secret files."
Principled Einstein. Obviously.
He couldn’t have taken them to Spain: that wouldn’t be responsible and he’d probably get busted. He could destroy the documents, but he wouldn’t be able to take credit and try to drive up more awareness. Don’t mistake intelligence for stupidity

hehe, which is why he chose to leave both the stolen documents, his wife, and their two daughters in the same place to deal with the authorities, while he lit out for the tapas and bullfighting, hahahahaha. again, in terms of stupid and cowardly act, this man is off the fuckin charts mate. but wax on, you waxer you.
