Report: FBI blew many chances to identify spy.
Agency failed to see that suspected Chinese spy  ‘was in bed with’  bureau.

The Associated Press
Updated: 7:50 a.m. ET May 24, 2006

WASHINGTON - The FBI missed many opportunities to identify a suspected Chinese spy and her FBI lover, including a tip that she “was in bed with” the bureau’s Los Angeles office, a Justice Department internal review said Wednesday.

Katrina Leung, a Chinese-American paid informant for the FBI, and her handler, former counterintelligence agent James J. Smith, were able to deceive the FBI about their romantic relationship for nearly 20 years, Justice Department inspector general Glenn A. Fine said. In all, the FBI paid Leung $1.7 million over 18 years, Fine said.

The Chinese Lady was an FBI informant. Do they ever send her to Polygraph evaluation as with other contract/support personnel...?? I guess that will be the case because they were paying this woman good money. Also what about the CI agent Smith...?? They are not suppose to go to Polygraph test at least once a year...???
I guess the couple used CM's with success...!!!

Irishgeek,

When citing an article, please provide a link to the source. The article you're citing is available on-line here (and elswhere):

http://www.abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?id=1999271

It should be noted that Katrina Leung has not been shown to have spied for any country other than the United States. A federal judge dismissed all charges against her, and she denies having spied for China.

While working as an FBI informant, Leung was, in fact, asked to submit to a polygraph "test," but she wisely refused. For past discussion of the FBI's abortive espionage investigation of Leung, see the message thread, Ex-FBI Agent and Informant Accused in Spy Case.

Wow. if Leung and Smith had sex twice weekly, for 18 years, 
that means she was paid some $900 a shot.
Mmm. Nice work if you can get it.

if you had to spin an oriental spy around ten times,
would he be disoriented...?
just a thought.
