that part of her agreement to cooperate will be a promise of her entering into the Witness Protection Program and remaining in the U.S. after whatever prison sentence she gets. They may let her go with time already served. If she was made to return to Russia her life wouldn't be worth a Trump inauguration commemorative medallion. Russian spies aren't supposed to talk at all, and even then their futures aren't certain upon returning to "Mother Russia". Unless she has a death wish, I believe asylum must be part of her deal.

I'd bet my bottom dollar that CNN is mispronouncing her last name. And by the way - she may not be as hot as Anna Chapman, but she is photogenic, especially when she's posing with those guns - she looks so delighted and into it that she almost seems to be having an orgasm!
