A former CIA analyst and prominent expert on North Korea, Sue Mi Terry, has been indicted by a New York grand jury on charges of secretly working for the South Korean government. The indictment alleges that Terry, who was also a member of the US National Security Council, began acting as a foreign agent in June 2013.
According to the indictment, Terry advocated South Korean policy positions, disclosed nonpublic US Government information to South Korean intelligence officers, and facilitated access for South Korean officials to US Government officials. In exchange, she allegedly received around $37,000, designer goods, lavish meals, and payments for writing opinion articles that supported South Korean policy positions.
