Goodbye Anna Chapman, hello Anna Fermanova.
NY Post tracked down the story of a 24-year-old Latvian who was caught at JFK on her way to Moscow with a $7,000 Raptor 4X Night Vision Weapons Sight and with two other night-vision devices worth $4,000 each.
The timeline is a somewhat confusing. US Customs detained the blonde bombshell back in March, confiscated her weapons gear, and allowed her to fly to Moscow. She was arrested on return to the US, earlier this month. Now she is in house arrest at her parent's place in Plano, TX.
Her side of the story:
"I am a US citizen. I grew up in America. I am not a spy -- that is just funny," she told The Post. "I am freaking out right now."
The other side, via NY Daily News:
But court documents make Fermanova sound like quite the femme fatale.
They say a confidential informant tipped off federal immigration agents in February that Fermanova was in the market for weapons accessories.

Id like her to snuggle my patriot missile
She can have my start treaty.
The other Anna is hotter.
I agree
Hotter than a $2 pistol that one is..
I’d be worried about premature detonation!
Hmmm... My Russian booty call visits the motherland a couple of times a year. I better keep a better eye on her.
What happened to the pics?
What was she doing going to Russia with night vision goggles ?
did she say? She looks not guilty to me
I will have to reserve judgement in this case until a full airing of the facts.
However, due to the nature of the allegations, she needs to remain under house arrest for the foreseeable future.
My house will do just fine. :)
I guess she doesn’t have an IQ of 162
She can seize control of my means of production anytime she likes.
The pillow talk that follows is what is important to them.
They aren't interested in you and your, ah, missile.
Besides, she's really not very attractive.
the moderator removed them - perhaps his screen burst into flames...
hottie comments aside, are night vision goggles a huge national security secret? Are you telling me the Ruskies don’t already have NVG’s?
Most Latvians would object to being called “russian.”
