Former White House National Security Advisor John Bolton reached an agreement with the Department of Justice (DOJ) to plead guilty to a charge related to the illegal retention of classified information, a case that could close one of the most sensitive investigations into the handling of sensitive national security documents in recent years.

According to CNN reports, Bolton will admit responsibility for a serious crime of withholding national defense documents, as part of an agreement that would allow him to avoid a prison sentence.

The hearing in which he will formalize his guilty plea is scheduled for June 26 in a federal court in Greenbelt, Maryland.
