The Navy Is Discharging Jarod McIntosh Because It Found Photos Of His Boyfriend on a Cell Phone

Meet Jarod McIntosh. He’s being discharged from the Navy because he accidentally brought his camera-equipped cell phone into a submarine, which is a restricted area. Yes, that was a dumb move. But even dumber is what happened afterward.

His superiors confiscated his phone to ensure it didn’t contain any classified material. It didn’t. But there were what sounds like intimate photos of Jared and his boyfriend Doug. Jared is being discharged not for breaking the rules about bringing audio-video equipment into a restricted area, but for being gay. He’s appealing the separation.
