One ex-Kent Denver teacher has pleaded guilty to espionage -- and it looks like his wife is about to follow suit.
set to make an appearance at 9 a.m. Mountain time today, February 18, before the same federal magistrate judge who handled her husband's case, and documents suggest that she'll enter a guilty plea of her own.
Last year, Kent Denver confirmed that both Toebbes worked in the science department at the school, and the institution is mentioned prominently on their LinkedIn pages, which are still online. Thefor Jonathan, 42, cites his employment dates as 2005-2008, after which he attended the Colorado School of Mines, where he earned a master's degree in nuclear engineering while racking up a grade point average of 3.98.
On April 1, 2020, the department says, Jonathan allegedly"sent a package to a foreign government, listing a return address in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, containing a sample of Restricted Data and instructions for establishing a covert relationship to purchase additional Restricted Data." Shortly thereafter, he's accused of"corresponding via encrypted email with an individual whom he believed to be a representative of the foreign government.
The feds contend that the scheme didn't end there. On August 28,"Jonathan Toebbe made another 'dead drop' of an SD card in eastern Virginia, this time concealing the card in a chewing gum package," the department release continues."After making a payment to Toebbe of $70,000 in cryptocurrency, the FBI received a decryption key for the card. It, too, contained Restricted Data related to submarine nuclear reactors.
