Question Presented (from Petition)

The Espionage Act of 1917 was intended to prohibit interference with "Military " operations or recruitment, to prevent insubordination in the military, and to prevent the support of United States enemies during wartime. In order to invade the privacy or civil rights of an American citizen, a federal judge must have probable cause to issue the rights of a federal agency to spy, eavesdrop or wiretap an American citizen. 18 U.S.C §119. The Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution, prohibits the right of the people to be secure against unreasonable searches and seizures. The United States Constitution also protects an American citizen from Torture or Treason. 18 U.S.C § 2340A, 18 U.S.C § 2381.

The questions presented is whether the United States Navy/USN had legal consent to spy on me while serving in the United States Marine Corps/USMC during the Gulf War and why wasn 't the spying terminated and removed when my career ended in the military?

Did the lower courts neglect to hear this case based on the preponderance of the evidence and beyond a reasonable doubt that in fact a federal crime has been committed and a civil tort is this aftermath?

When is my freedom going to be restored and the torture going to stop? U.S Const. Amend 14

Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether the United States Navy/USN had legal consent to spy on the petitioner while serving in the United States Marine Corps/USMC during the Gulf War and why the spying was not terminated when the petitioner's military career ended
