Navy SEAL allegedly kept unauthorized bin Laden corpse photo
One of the Navy SEALs who shot Osama bin Laden is under investigation for allegedly keeping pictures of the corpse. The Intercept reports Matthew Bissonnette has also been under some suspicion for his business deals benefiting from the raid during his time in active duty.
This information comes after he allegedly turned in his hard drive that had pictures of bin Laden's corpse.

In 2012, one year after the White House said it wouldn't release photos of bin Laden's corpse, Bissonnette wrote a book about the raid that killed bin Laden, titled "No Easy Day", under the pseudonym Mark Owen. He is currently facing a lawsuit from his former lawyers claiming he ignored their advice to submit the book to the federal government for clearance before it was published.
The suit also says Bissonnette misinformed them about his military status at the time he hired them, lied to them about when he started to write the book and lied to them about his signing of non-disclosure agreements and his retention of classified documents.
Bissonnette also filed a suit against the law firm alleging he was given bad advice. It claims his reputation has been tarnished because of the advice he received and he has lost a significant portion of the income he otherwise would have received following his retirement from the military through consulting jobs, speaking engagements and future employment.
