So is it assumed they were Chinese spies or was Shanghai just a neutral meeting point?

What a selfish flog putting his own country’s security at risk for a quick buck.

Two points of concern (assuming guilt)
1) That the maximum sentence is so low, it should be life without chance of parole and confiscation of all assets given it was done for profit.
2) Why were Fed and state govt department so negligent as to allow a subcontractor to be hired who essentially lives in and does most of his work for an unfriendly foreign dictatorship?
