🚨HIGH RISKcriminal

Walter Kendall Myers served as a European analyst in the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research (INR) from 2000 until his retirement in October 2007. From approximately 1979 until his arrest, Myers and his wife Gwendolyn acted as illegal agents of the Cuban government, passing classified information to Havana for nearly 30 years. Per law enforcement sources, the Myerses were 'true believers' in the Cuban system — their motivation was ideological, not financial.
