How Boeing engineer spied for Chinese for 30 years... and stole secrets on space shuttle
An American engineer was convicted of waging a 30-year campaign of industrial espionage after police found 300,000 pages of sensitive material at his home.
Chinese-born Dongfan 'Greg' Chung, 73, stole the documents while working for Boeing and Rockwell International as a stress analyst.
Investigators believe at least some of the material, which included information about the US space shuttle and a booster rocket, was handed on to China.
Chung was convicted of six counts of economic espionage, one count of acting as a foreign agent, one count of conspiracy and one count of lying to federal agents.
He could face up to 90 years in prison when he is sentenced in November.
