On December 12, 2005, [Donald Willis] Keyser pled guilty to a three-count Criminal Information in which he admitted that he willfully and unlawfully removed classified documents and digital memory devices from the Department of State to his residence. Keyser also admitted that he lied to an investigator from the Bureau of Diplomatic Security (www.diplomaticsecurity.state.gov) at the Department of State about his relationship with Isabelle Cheng, an intelligence officer of Taiwan, by falsely denying that he had engaged in conduct with Cheng which might make him vulnerable to coercion, exploitation, or pressure from a foreign government. Keyser further admitted that he lied on a U.S. Customs Declaration in 2003 by not listing Taiwan as a country that he had visited, when in fact he had traveled to Taiwan for approximately three days and had met there with Cheng.
United States Attorney Chuck Rosenberg stated, “Mr. Keyser had an absolute obligation to safeguard the classified information entrusted to him and utterly failed to do so. His sentence of imprisonment is a warning to others in positions of public trust.”
