Former FBI agent pleads guilty to spying for Moscow
Former FBI agent Robert Hanssen pleaded guilty to 15 counts of espionage and conspiracy to spy for Russia in a plea deal to avoid the death penalty. He admitted spying for Moscow and faces life in prison with his family retaining their Vienna Virginia home and his wife entitled to part of his FBI retirement pay if she cooperates. The agreement bans him from writing books or giving interviews and the lawyer called the plea a victory for both sides.
