Wife of ex-Navy nuclear engineer pleads guilty in conspiracy to sell submarine data

BALTIMORE — The Annapolis, Maryland, woman accused of serving as a lookout for her husband, a Navy nuclear engineer, as he engaged in a scheme to sell military secrets to foreign governments pleaded guilty Friday to a conspiracy charge in a West Virginia federal court.

Diana Toebbe, 46, changed her plea four days after her husband, Jonathan Toebbe, also pleaded guilty, admitting he shared data and documents with details about nuclear submarines to who he thought were representatives of another country, but were really undercover FBI agents.

The couple was arrested in October on espionage charges.
