Yes you did. Crimes done by government are the State's most closely guarded (if not well kept) secrets.

EDIT: Downvoters already forgot all about Edward Snowden, Chelsea Manning, and David McBride, etc.

All of whom leaked evidence of crimes committed by their governments and were prosecuted for "revealing state secrets and endangering national security".
