The small amounts of money Susan Lindauer was paid and the relatively minor charges must be what they have cold on her. I suspect her upside potential was
much greater than that. I believe the primary motivation to be greed; though to some extent may be a true ideological believer, and may get an ego-kick in being a star soldier in an international conspiracy.
Now that she can never reap the rewards she thought she would get, she'll sing. Sing, Susan!
