Classified material stolen from nuclear lab in TN:
Premium Link Upgrade
WASHINGTON - A contract employee at a nuclear material cleanup site in Tennessee was charged Thursday with allegedly stealing classified data about enriching uranium to sell to foreign governments, *************** officials said.
The man, identified as Roy Lynn Oakley, 67, of Roane County, Tenn., instead sold the sensitive material to undercover FBI agents, said two officials who spoke on condition of anonymity because the arrest had not yet been publicly announced.
Well, at least he got caught. But I guess in a way you can't blame the guy. He probably worked for peanuts all his life, and thought he could get enough money to retire on. Not that I'd want our nuclear secrets in the hands of a foreign government...but I can easily see why he attempted it.
