Man in prison for stealing military secrets goes on trial in child sex case

Man in prison for stealing military secrets goes on trial in child sex case
FEBRUARY 7, 2017, 12:45 AM



A Palm Beach County man who is already serving 10 years in federal prison after admitting he stole military secrets is on trial in South Florida on allegations he used his position as a government contractor to "marry" underage girls in Honduras.

The bizarre case of Christopher Glenn took another strange turn on Monday when Glenn, who had said he planned to act as his own lawyer in the lengthy trial, balked at the last minute about representing himself in court.

Since the latest charges were filed in 2015, Glenn, who most recently lived with relatives in the 55-and-over Century Village community in West Palm Beach, has gone on a strange odyssey through the justice system.

Glenn, 36, born in Buffalo, N.Y., spoke in his native tongue, English, for all his court hearings in the military secrets case in federal court in West Palm Beach.
