A former Central Intelligence Agency officer who was paid hundreds of thousands to leak United States defence and intelligence secrets, has pleaded guilty to spying for China, the US Justice Department said.
The statement also said that Lee created thumb drives containing secret information about CIA activities and the location and time frame of a sensitive operation. An FBI search in 2012 of a Honolulu hotel room registered to Lee also discovered handwritten notes by him about his work as a CIA officer before 2004.
"These notes included, among other things, intelligence provided by CIA assets, true names of assets, operational meeting locations and phone numbers, and information about covert facilities," the statement said.US Assistant Attorney General for National Security John Demers said, it was the third case in less than a year in which a former US intelligence officer had pleaded guilty or been found guilty of conspiring to pass defence secrets to China.
