SANTA ANA, Calif.—A Chinese-born engineer was sentenced Monday to more than 15 years in prison for hoarding sensitive information about the U.S. space shuttle that prosecutors say he intended to share with China.
The case against Dongfan "Greg" Chung was the U.S.'s first trial on economic-espionage charges. The 74-year-old former Boeing Co. engineer was convicted in July of six counts of economic espionage and other federal charges for keeping 300,000 pages of sensitive papers in his home.
Before sentencing Mr. Chung, U.S. District Judge Cormac J. Carney said he didn't know exactly what information Mr. Chung passed to China. "But what I do know is what he did, and what he did pass, hurt our national security and it hurt Boeing," the judge said.
Judge Carney said Mr. Chung's scheme with the Chinese government spanned 30 years.
During brief remarks, Mr. Chung begged the judge to give him a lenient sentence. He spoke from a podium while wearing a tan prison jumpsuit with his hands cuffed to a belly chain.
"Your honor, I am not a spy, I am only an ordinary man," he said, adding that he had brought the Boeing documents home to write a book.
"Your honor, I love this country.…Your honor, I beg your pardon and let me live with my family peacefully."
Despite Mr. Chung's age, prosecutors requested a 20-year sentence, in part to send a message to other would-be spies.
But the judge said he couldn't put a value on the amount of information that Mr. Chung stole and couldn't determine exactly how much the breaches hurt Boeing and the nation. He also cited the engineer's age and frail health in going with a sentence of 15 years and eight months.
"It's very difficult having to make a decision where someone is going to have to spend the rest of their adult life in prison," Judge Carney said. "I take no comfort or satisfaction in that."
Assistant U.S. Attorney Greg Staples noted in sentencing papers that Mr. Chung amassed a personal wealth of more than $3 million while betraying his adopted country.
"The [People's Republic of China] is bent on stealing sensitive information from the United States and shows no sign of relenting," Mr. Staples wrote. "Only strong sentences offer any hope of dissuading others from helping the PRC get that technology."
Mr. Chung's attorney, Thomas Bienert Jr., has said his client will appeal.
The government accused Mr. Chung, a stress analyst with high-level clearance, of using his 30-year career at Boeing and Rockwell International to steal the documents. They said investigators found papers stacked throughout Mr. Chung's house that included sensitive information about a booster rocket fueling system—documents that employees were ordered to lock away at the end of each day. They said Boeing invested $50 million in the technology over a five-year period.
During the nonjury trial, Mr. Chung's lawyers argued that he may have violated Boeing policy by bringing the papers home, but he didn't break any laws by doing so, and the U.S. government couldn't prove he had given secret information to China.
In his ruling, Judge Carney wrote that the notion that Mr. Chung was merely a pack rat was "ludicrous" and said the evidence showed that he had been passing information to Chinese officials as a spy.
The government believes Mr. Chung began spying for the Chinese in the late 1970s, a few years after he became a naturalized U.S. citizen and was hired by Rockwell.
Mr. Chung worked for Rockwell until it was bought by Boeing in 1996. He stayed with the company until he was laid off in 2002, then was brought back a year later as a consultant. He was fired when the FBI began its investigation in 2006.
When agents searched Mr. Chung's house that year, they discovered more than 225,000 pages of documents on Boeing-developed aerospace and defense technologies, according to trial briefs.
The technologies dealt with a phased-array antenna being developed for radar and communications on the U.S. space shuttle and a $16 million fueling mechanism for the Delta IV booster rocket, used to launch manned space vehicles.
Agents also found documents on the C-17 Globemaster troop transport used by the U.S. Air Force and militaries in Britain, Australia and Canada—but the government later dropped charges related to those finds.
Prosecutors discovered Mr. Chung's activities while investigating another suspected Chinese spy living and working in Southern California.
That man, Chi Mak, was convicted in 2007 of conspiracy to export U.S. defense technology to China. He was sentenced to 24 years in prison.

在加利福尼亚州圣安娜，华裔工程师被判处超过15年监禁，其被指控对美国的航天飞机情报收集，检察官说他打算与中国分享敏感信息。
这位74岁的前波音公司工程师，被判定犯有6个经济间谍活动，在他家有30万页的敏感文件
钟先生判刑之前，美国地方法院法官科马克J. Carney先生表示，“但我不知道他做过什么，以及他曾将伤害我们的国家安全，这伤害了波音公司，”
、“这是非常困难而作出的决定，如果有人将不得不在监狱度过余生，”法官卡尼说。
、“[人民中国共和国]执意窃取美国敏感信息，并显示没有缓和的迹象，”史泰博先生说。 “只有强大的判决能阻止中共获得该技术的希望。”
钟先生的律师小托马斯比纳特曾表示，他的当事人将提出上诉。
政府指控利用其30年的波音公司和罗克韦尔国际公司的职业生涯窃取文件 调查人员发现，在整个文件中，包括一个火箭助推器加油系统，波音公司在此技术投资超过5000万美元。
以及相控阵天线处理技术，正在开发的用于雷达和美国航天飞机通信和1600万美元的加油德尔塔-4火箭的机制。

如果真有这么回事，估计是国内有人把他给卖了，这个最腻味人。不过话又说回来，在美国的华人是不可能接触到很有价值的信息的，欧美白人因为种族的原因，不会有什么人肯为咱们国家服务。
留学美国的学生们和华裔科学家们赶快归国吧。祖国更需要你们这样的人才，为啥死皮赖脸的呆在美国这个垃圾国家，还被人瞧不起，难道就因为这个垃圾国家的工资待遇高，说实话现在祖国的工资待遇并不低，祖国方方面面需要人才，而且海归更被人尊重，现在祖国魅力四射，活力非凡，不是昔日的吴下阿蒙了，归来吧，祖国才是你展现才华的舞台。
在家堆大量文件，这个比较奇怪，大概是早就挂号了的，找个时间抓他而已。
他从卖情报获得了三百多万美元报酬，所以应该不是派去的特务，大概确实是商业间谍。
