          FBI had the goods on Lee, questioned him extensively in May 2013... he fled in June. Why did they not arrest him sooner? Possible this could have influenced the decision to hold off?http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-22798572 …

          Oh my freaking god, y’all will blame any and everything on Clinton and obama. Did you even read the story? They started investigating in 2012 and he went to a non extradition country. The second he set foot of US soil they arrested him. Thanks for playing.

          I don't think the US should allow Naturalized Aliens to join FBI or CIA. At the end of the day any man would chose their own country over any other. Plain and Simple.

          I suspect this was just another case of treason against the US under orders from Barack Obama t bring our country down. Obama and the rest of his administration must be prosecuted and executed for their treason.
