Quick Glance: Former US Ambassador Sentenced for Spying for Cuba
  • Former US ambassador Manuel Rocha was sentenced to 15 years in prison after admitting to working as a secret agent for Cuba for decades.

  • Rocha accepted the penalty and paid a $500,000 fine after pleading guilty to acting on behalf of a foreign government.

  • The swift criminal case avoided a trial that would have revealed the extent of Rocha's assistance to Cuba while working for the US State Department for twenty years.

  • The sophistication of Cuban intelligence services was highlighted as Rocha's double-crossing went undetected for years, demonstrating his secret meetings with Cuban operatives and provision of false information to US officials.
