Anna Chapman has the face of an angel. A stylish redhead with model looks and a master's degree in economics, the 28-year-old lived the New York high-life, renting a $2,100-a-month apartment and hobnobbing with Manhattan's social elite.
She also was a "practiced deceiver" who worked as an agent for the Russian government, attempting to secretly transmit information from her laptop computer to a Russian government computer, according to U.S. federal prosecutors.
Chapman, along with 10 others, was charged Monday with conspiracy to act as an agent of a foreign government without notifying the U.S. attorney general, which carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison upon conviction.
According to two criminal complaints filed in U.S. District Court in New York, Chapman allegedly met with an FBI official posing as a Russian agent on June 26 to receive, and later deliver, a fraudulent passport to an unnamed individual who she believed was also a Russian agent.
"Are you ready for this step?" the undercover agent asked her inside a New York coffee shop.
"S---, of course," Chapman allegedly replied.
Upon receiving the fraudulent passport, investigators followed Chapman to Brooklyn, where she was allegedly seen discarding a Verizon cell phone registered under the name Irine Kutsov," residing at "99 Fake Street."
Chapman was arrested a day later while turning over the fraudulent passport to police -- a detail her attorney, Robert M. Baum, said shows she is not the experienced so-called spy that prosecutors claim her to be.

She could have saved herself the trouble of an arrest and jail time by just having beastly intentions toward me.
I win this, because I am willing to save tax payer dollars... I will bathe her personally!
I would be happy to do this. I would also gladly give her all the time she needs to convince me of her innocence"
“Chapman’s Facebook page, on which she also uses the Russian form of her name “Anya,””
They don’t make spies like they used to.
At http://www.aolnews.com/article/anna-chapmans-secret-spy-life-revealed/19535494 you can read the complaint against her. Very interesting.
I’d hit it.
As long as you don’t have a wife, I am sure you will do a great job in keeping her subdued.
She may look more guilty but I think we should still keep her from the teaching field.
Hopefully they use that photo in the trial.
Is she one of them thar Russian “Swallows?” I’d like to think so!
She was married to a Brit & probably just kept his name.
5 years!!!! That’s it!!!

No way a US Attorney didn’t talk to the administration about the proper charges, at least I’d imagine. I haven’t worked in a US Attorney’s office but . . .
Obama looks soft on these spies.
Now if we could only get the FBI to go after the Kenyan spy living in the white house with the same zeal.
“I need to see the entire BODY”
There was a pic in yesterday’s thread. It’s a great body!
“A stylish redhead with model looks and a master’s degree in economics”
This would make her an order of magnitude better looking and more informed about economics than Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman. So sad she, rather than he, will be heading to the slammer.
I think you'll even be more patriotic.
