From Times Wire Reports

A former intelligence analyst with a supersecret Pentagon agency was indicted on charges he was a spy for the Soviet KGB. A grand jury in Alexandria, Va., alleged that David Sheldon Boone, analyst for the National Security Agency, spied for the Soviet security and espionage agency in the late 1980s, then fell prey this year to an FBI sting operation. The department said the Soviets paid Boone $60,000 for a variety of top-secret documents. Boone was arrested last month at a Virginia hotel. His attorney did not return a call seeking comment.
