Unless you are exceptionally well versed in CI resources, please confine your research to the Counterintelligence Reader, Volumes 3 & 4  (see Reserved Readings Week 9 or http://www.fas.org/irp/ops/ci/docs/ ), sources in the Webliography provided to you in Private Messaging and sources in Reserved Readings or mentioned in the lectures.  For cases where the subject was arrested in the past 10-years, an affidavit or other court documents often available through an Internet search will provide factual information.  Much of what you will find on the Internet is not entirely reliable.  List all of the sources you use in APA format. 
Submit your analysis in 500-750 words (double spaced, Times New Roman, 12 point font) through the Assignments folder; please ensure that your paper includes the originality score you obtained from Turnitin on the front page.
