Mallory, 62, spent more than 20 years in intelligence, first as a covert case officer for the CIA and later as an intelligence officer for the Defense Intelligence Agency. Prosecutors alleged he gave his Chinese handlers documents of a classified spying operation and a CIA analysis of a foreign country’s intelligence capabilities.
Mallory was a rare example of a spying case going to trial. Since March, three other Americans have accepted plea agreements: Ron Hansen, 58, a former intelligence officer for the Defense Intelligence Agency; Jerry Chun Shing Lee, 54, a former CIA case officer; and 63-year-old Candace Claiborne, a former State Department employee.
Top U.S. officials have warned of China’s long-term, multipronged campaign to advance Chinese interests at the cost of American national security.
