A former FBI bomb technician has offered to plead guilty to leaking classified information about a foiled Yemen bomb plot against a U.S.-bound commercial jetliner to the Associated Press.

Donald J. Sachtleben, a 25-year veteran of the FBI who retired in 2008 but continued working as a contractor, has filed a petition to plead guilty to violating national security laws, according to court documents filed Monday. Sachtleben, of Carmel, Ind., also will plead guilty to child pornography distribution charges resulting from an unrelated investigation, the documents said.

"I am deeply sorry for my actions,” Sachtleben said in a statement issued by his attorneys, Larry Mackey and Kathleen Sweeney. ‘While I never intended harm to the United States or to any individuals, I do not make excuses for myself. I understand and accept that today’s filings start the process of paying the full consequences of my misconduct, and I know that the justice system I once served so proudly will have its say."
