    Will first time assault warrant losing top security clearance
    Two part question:

    How prevalent/frequent is it that security clearances are pulled in general -- any statistics on how many are revoked annually and for what reason?

    What's the likelihood that a first time offender, charged with third degree assault, would lose a top secret security clearance? And, under what conditions? Can I report this - and other unusual behavior - or does the govt just have to "discover" it? Question relates to a neighbor who physically assaulted my husband and claims to have a top security clearance and be worried about his job.

    Hello m:

    If convicted, the likelihood is high that he'll lose his clearance... But if YOU report it, probably not. They'll just consider it retaliation for some domestic dispute, which it is.
