I don’t know, but from the very little I see, he looks it. But that’s why we have trials, and I wish him the best defense he can afford. I could well be wrong. I admit sting operations do disturb me, they create the crime to be prosecuted. In some cases bringing an otherwise guilty man to justice, in others simply creating a criminal. The latter case counterproductive in a free society. But if this was his only “indiscretion”, if he sold classified documents, the sting becomes irrelevant.
If the info is accurate, he went back for a “second helping” of money.
Not cool at all!
And if he’s guilty, he needs much, much more than a few years in prison.
20 years hard time in Leavenworth would do nicely.
All spys that I know of were arrested for actually passing information to the enemy or a foreign nation. They actually did some spying and espionage. Maybe this will come out in court and maybe this Nozette will be charged with actual espionage
But so far what I see is a man who handed over top secret material to the FBI who was faking being from a foreign power. Is this really the best we can do? Yeah it’s against the law but we should be arresting spies who actually commit espionage
