Reno Weighs Whether to Prosecute Former CIA Chief

Attorney General Janet Reno is weighing a recommendation to prosecute former CIA director John M. Deutch for home-computer security violations but has made no final decision on whether to bring criminal charges, sources familiar with the case said yesterday.

Paul E. Coffey, a former prosecutor brought out of retirement by Reno to review the Deutch case, has informed Justice Department officials that he believes charges should be brought against Deutch for drafting top-secret intelligence documents on unsecure home computers linked to the Internet, the sources said.

In its initial review of the case, Justice Department officials decided against prosecuting Deutch for exposing highly classified information on unsecure home computers to possible cyberattacks by hackers or foreign intelligence services throughout his tenure as CIA director from May 1995 through December 1996.

But Reno announced in February that she had asked Coffey to review the case again after a highly critical CIA inspector general's report on Deutch's security violations was leaked to the media and caused controversy on Capitol Hill.

At the time, senior advisers to Reno expressed concern about the appearance of a double standard when the Deutch case was compared with that of Wen Ho Lee, a former physicist at Los Alamos National Laboratory who was indicted in December on 59 felony counts for downloading nuclear secrets to unsecured computers and portable tapes.

Deutch, who has admitted the breach and apologized for violating CIA security, left the CIA in late 1996 and went back to his job as a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Lee has been in solitary confinement since December, although a federal judge in New Mexico ruled Thursday that he can be released on $1 million bail next week after restrictive conditions for his release are worked out.

In August 1999, four months after the Justice Department declined prosecution, CIA Director George J. Tenet stripped Deutch of his CIA security clearances. He acted after receiving the findings of his own inspector general, which concluded that Tenet and other agency officials had bungled, but not obstructed, an internal investigation into Deutch's security violations.

If Reno accepts Coffey's recommendation and seeks criminal charges against Deutch, her action would represent the first time in history that a cabinet-level official has been charged with violations of the espionage act or a related statute for mishandling classified information.

Provisions of the espionage act make the willful mishandling of classified defense information a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison; taking classified information home without authorization is a misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in prison.

Ten years only? JEEZ! HEY JANET! While you're at it, just load up Mossad agent Deutch's case with a coupla more indictments:

>> Conspiracy to screw up Clinton's Middle East policy;
>> Felonious misconduct in the protection of US embassies (Kenya, Tanzania);
>> Secret dealings with a foreign country (Israel) to foil President Bill Clinton's foreign agenda.

The Deutch case is a high-treason affair --forget about the nuclear tripe.... HEY POLLARD, YOU TURKEY! Make room! Your boss is coming.
