Morgan after committing suicide
Morgan was indicted for selling U.S. state secrets to the Chinese government, despite protesting his innocence, and was placed in protective custody while awaiting trial. Prosecutors intended to try Morgan for treason, with a maximum sentence of life imprisonment. While in custody in Langley, Virginia, Morgan died in an apparent suicide. The incident was reported in a Washington Daily Courier article, which was later posted on the Open Cell website. (Open-Cell.org)
As a result of Morgan's outing, his wife Kate was demoted and ordered to return to the United States. Many of her colleagues, including Erik Ritter and her direct superior Steve Navarro, began to doubt her judgment and competence, as her husband had been committing grave treason without her knowledge.
