Perkins Will Appeal Espionage Conviction
At Tyndall Air Force Base Florida M Sergeant Walter T Perkins prepares to appeal his espionage conviction arguing issues of alcoholism and innocence. He received a three year term a basic airman rank drop and a dishonorable discharge with support from attorney Henry Rothblatt who pursued a new alcoholism defense. Perkins voiced the sentence as light and his wife Michiko and mother Grace supported him as he and his family await the outcome of a potential Air Force Court of Military Review. He was found guilty of failing to destroy five classified documents and attempting to pass them to Soviet agents in Mexico City. He will continue to draw $138 monthly while in prison though his pay remains reduced pending discharge at release.
