He was an amateur spy who was caught using good old police techniques. Whether they knew before shouldn't matter.
COUNTRY1 turned everything over and assisted the FBI in their investigation (signaling the suspect). I'm certain they'll send someone to testify in court if needed.
- yyyk 5y ago>Whether they knew before shouldn't matter. But it does matter. The prosecution isn't just to get a conviction and enforce the law, it's intended to advance national security. If embarrassing details come out and harm it, the prosecutors would rather not have a trial. It's quite possible to imagine various embarrassing details that might come out and are compatible with the story as reported - from possible spying on COUNTRY1's embassy, to how exactly did this engineer smuggle these secret documents to his house.
