Feds search home of jailed Los Alamos scientist
The Associated Press
WHITE ROCK, N.M. (August 31, 2000 8:46 p.m. EDT http://www.nandotimes.com) - FBI agents searched Wen Ho Lee's home Thursday as the former Los Alamos National Laboratory scientist accused of security breaches waited in jail for his Friday release on bail.
"It's going to be a long day," FBI Special Agent Doug Beldon said. Numerous agents were searching Lee's White Rock home and weren't expected to finish until noon Friday, the time set by the judge for Lee's release after more than eight months behind bars.
U.S. District Judge James Parker on Tuesday proposed what he described as "highly restrictive terms" for Lee's release, including a search of the home, and ordered prosecution and defense attorneys to negotiate the final conditions.
The final conditions were not released, but the judge's proposal included limits on communication, travel, home visits and required removal of all electronic communication devices except for one telephone line. Lee would have to remain under electronic monitoring except when being driven by his lawyers to court or to work on his defense. His mail also could be inspected. Lee's neighbors are to serve as his custodians during his release.
Parker said Lee should be freed by Friday on $1 million bail, barring an appeal by the government. An appeal could delay Lee's release, but there was no word on any such filing by Thursday afternoon.
Lee has been jailed since Dec. 10 on charges involving the alleged transfer of restricted data about nuclear weapons to unsecure computers and tape at the lab.
On Thursday, the area around Lee's home was cordoned off by police cars and cones. About 10 people were going in and out of the home, some carrying clipboards.
"We don't expect them to find anything in this house," said one of Lee's attorneys, Nancy Hollander of Albuquerque.
One of Lee's neighbors, Nora Aubert, said: "I want it to be over. I want them to release him or do something."
