John Bolton Probed Over Classified Documents, Court Filings Reveal

Imagine a former advisor to a past US president, John Bolton, is now being looked at by the government.

They're checking if he kept or shared secret documents he shouldn't have.

The government searched his house and took some things, like his phones and some papers.

This is because there are rules about how secret information is handled.

One rule, the Espionage Act, says it's wrong to take or share such information without permission.

It's important to know that an investigation doesn't automatically mean someone is guilty.
