US accuses North Korea expert Sue Mi Terry of working for South Korean spies

Ex-CIA analyst and White House official charged with providing intel and access in exchange for luxury goods and perks

U.S. federal prosecutors have charged prominent North Korea expert Sue Mi Terry, a former CIA analyst and White House official, with allegedly working for South Korean spies in exchange for luxury goods and expensive dinners.

Over the course of more than a decade, Terry promoted Seoul’s policy positions in publications and media appearances, shared sensitive information with South Korean intelligence officers and facilitated access to U.S. government officials by ROK intelligence, according to the indictment from the New York Southern District attorney’s office.
