Spy trial could end in death penalty in Virginia
The first federal spy trial in 50 years opens with prosecutors portraying Brian Patrick Regan as willing to betray the United States for money. His lawyers counter that he had nothing valuable to offer and that satellites could be bought commercially. If convicted, Regan could be the first American executed for spying since the Rosenbergs in 1953.

One later made a frantic 911 call claiming the boat was taking on water, but the call cut off before rescuers could locate them. Dogs traced scent to a marina near an 8-foot dinghy, found near the cemetery where a guitar was recovered.
