Ex-C.I.A. Officer Indicted in Dismantling of U.S. Informant Network in China

WASHINGTON — A former C.I.A. officer suspected of helping China unravel the agency’s spy network in that country was indicted on Tuesday on a charge of conspiring to commit espionage.

The officer, Jerry Chun Shing Lee, 53, was arrested by F.B.I. agents in January after federal prosecutors accused him of illegally possessing classified information. But the new charge reflected a willingness of prosecutors to disclose sensitive details they might have been reluctant to acknowledge publicly.

According to prosecutors, two Chinese intelligence officers approached Mr. Lee in April 2010 and offered to pay him for information. The intelligence officers “provided Lee with a series of email addresses so that he could communicate covertly with them,” court papers said, and he received instructions from Chinese intelligence officers until at least 2011.

China is busy against everything we in America make, and do.

But our media, and democrats, are all obsessed with Russia, Russia, Russia.

This guy, if guilty, should hang.

How many agents in China were uncovered and killed?

What the heck do you have to do to be charged with good old fashioned treason these days? This guy should be tried, and if found guilty executed, plain and simple.

Despite the legal statutes, today you'd face more jail time if you killed a spotted owl.

Treason is explicitly defined in the Constitution. Since we have not declared war against China, he could not be convicted.

Give him a fair trial. Make certain all his Constitutional rights are respected.

Once he’s convicted, hang him by the neck until he’s dead.
