Ariel J. Weinmann, a fire control technician with the U.S. Navy, downloaded classified information from a ship database  to give to the Russian embassy in Austria.  He was arrested and charged with espionage in 2006, and was sentenced to 25 years in prison.  A plea agreement reduced his sentence to 12 years.
