Ex-US Spy Admits to $200m Scam and Selling Secrets

Former CIA officer David Rush has pleaded guilty to a massive $200 million fraud scheme involving fake government contracts. Authorities discovered hundreds of gold bars, luxury watches, and cash during a raid on his home. Beyond the financial fraud, Rush admitted to compromising national security by revealing the identity of a clandestine human source to a foreign official. He now faces significant restitution and forfeiture of assets.
