Robert Vrooman, former head of counterintelligence
at Los Alamos National Laboratory, will speak Friday, April 21, at 8 p.m.
in the Nott Memorial on “Espionage Challenges Facing the United
States: Lessons of the Wen-ho Lee Affair” in which he details why the
much-publicized spy case at Los Alamos was textbook racial profiling.
Wen-ho Lee, a Taiwan-born nuclear physicist, was
identified by the Cox Committee as having provided nuclear weapons
technology to China. He has since been indicted for violating Los Alamos'
security regulations, and is being held in solitary confinement and
without bail until trial.
