Former Air Force Intelligence Agent Charged With Spying for Iran
The indictment said she communicated frequently with Ms. Hashemi, who is identified as “Individual A.” She told Ms. Hashemi the work she had done for the Air Force was “evil.” She also talked about exposing a secret program and “do like Snowden,” a reference to Edward J. Snowden, a former National Security Agency contractor who stole sensitive documents and gave them to journalists.
Investigators also said she provided the Iranians with secret details about American intelligence operations. She is believed to still be in Iran.
She helped manage the same highly classified program involving informants working against Iran.
