    It seems more likely that he figured he’d be found out anyway, and decided there might be some safety in the light. Everyone knows him and what he did, instead of just some 3 letter agency that could suicide him without anyone ever noticing.

      Oh you couldn’t find anyone could you? We haven’t even done that with guys who handed stuff straight to the Russians without any whistleblowing. Straight up honest to God espionage. They’re in prison still, but they aren’t dead.

      ETA, well that sucks. I posted this on the wrong comment chain. But I’m leaving it up because it’s true. We don’t kill our turncoats. We just put them in prison for around 20 years.
