Super Spy - The Man Who Betrayed the West

SUPERSPY: THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WEST When a double agent secretly accuses one of the top names in US intelligence a desperate race begins. How can the traitor be netted….before he betrays still more precious secrets? Can the shocking claims be probed…without alerting a man who himself knows every trick of the spying trade? The agonising choices facing US spymasters in fall 2000 sound like a thriller plotline….but they are fact. With exclusive first-time access to Eric O’Neill, the FBI agent tasked with discovering the truth, this film at last reveals the untold story of the West’s worst ever spying disaster….involving turncoat FBI boss Robert Hanssen. His treachery led to torture and death for several agents….advanced the threat of nuclear war…and cost the US billions of dollars. Expert analysts reveal how the betrayal even helped Osama bin Laden target the Twin Towers…..and wage the war of terror which continues to this day. The most sensitive spy-on-spy mission ever mounted was handed to 27-year old rookie O’Neill because only he might stand a chance of drawing out the 25-year veteran spymaster and catching him off guard. Using Eric’s testimony and stylishly crafted dramatic reconstruction we follow the nerve racking cat-and- mouse game played out moment by moment as the net tightens around Hanssen. With time running out, the young agent is tasked to steal Hanssen’s Palm Pilot from his jacket pocket and quickly download its secrets. Among the data recovered are details of a ‘dead drop’…. to take place in just three days time. The traitor cunningly plans his final mission…a visit to a secluded bridge in a wintry Washington park…where he means to leave a bundle of stolen top secret documents. But this time the FBI are waiting. The carefully crafted operation climaxes as agents pounce, guns levelled. From those who knew Hanssen we also hear details of his extraordinary double life. The father of six, a God-fearing guardian of state security on the outside. On the inside, a man who posted bizarre sex fantasies on the internet, and rigged a secret bedroom camera so that a voyeur friend could watch him have sex with his school-teacher wife, Bonnie. The colourful array of witnesses who flesh out the story include former head of both the FBI and the CIA, William Webster; Dr David Charney, the FBI psychiatrist who probed Hanssen’s twisted mind; Hanssen’s boss and 20-year acquaintance, David Major; ex-KGB General Oleg Kalugin, who will reveal the full magnitude of Hanssen’s treachery; as well as other experts in the US and Russian intelligence community with first hand knowledge of the case.
