Did you write a report, at the time you were doing inspections in Votkinsk in the Soviet Union in 1988 that said the group your wife worked for was full of spies?
No. I indicated that given past models of Soviet penetration techniques that these young girls, of which my wife was one, who were brought in by the Soviets to carry out translation services had been used in the past to attempt sexual compromise. I subsequently wrote a series of reports that said this did not appear to be the case in Votkinsk. In fact, because of the human intelligence work I did in the Soviet Union I was able to ascertain that the girls were actually dissatisfied with the Soviets. They showed a tendency to speak out against the KGB to the U.S. inspectors.
I suspect the reason for Ritter's sudden aboutface was that he was in fact compromised by the Soviets through these women and maybe even his wife. With Saddam giving him $400,000 and the Soviets (now Russia) having compromising videos, it is easy to see how Scotty may have had a change of heart.
