A Virginia man caught with $16,500 in cash in his carry-on luggage was charged Thursday with transmitting top-secret documents to an apparent Chinese agent. He held Top Secret security clearance. According to the affidavit, Mallory told the FBI agents that the only documents he transferred were two unclassified "white papers" he had written on U.S. policy matters. In one message, Mallory wrote to the suspected Chinese agent, "your object is to gain information, and my object is to be paid." An analysis of the documents on the device found four classified documents, including three with a Top Secret classification.
