Retired Gen. David Petraeus exposed classified information even more widely than originally known, according to court documents made public this week that suggested he often spoke improperly with members of the media.

The documents, which include an affidavit signed by FBI Special Agent Diane Wehner as part of a 2013 search warrant request of Petraeus’ home, suggested Petraeus gave reporters restricted information on background. “There is a recorded conversation between Petraeus and, inter alia, Washington Post reporters, which, based on the information and belief of your affiant, occurred in or about March 2011,” Wehner wrote in the affidavit.
