And the theory is that, and this is, I have to be very careful because I know how crazy this sounds.

Somebody in the US government thought that I had or could get access to a foreign country's military secrets.

And so that they wanted to get me into custody and get me to get access to these.

And they'd be like, well, you got this whole case, but we'll let it go if you work for us.

And that's what the three recruitment attempts were.

And I kept turning them down.

And then they're like, well, screw it.

Let's just make him an offer he can't refuse.

If you read the books by the CIA recruitment officers or even history release documents, they've done stuff like this all the time.

In 2001, I moved to Russia and I lived in a city initially that used to be a closed city, which foreigners are not allowed.

And I married a Russian citizen and her parents worked in the factory, which makes Russian military planes.

And they had not only access, but direct knowledge of systems on those airplanes because they were senior engineers, both of them.

And so the working theory is, and there is some evidence to support this, I cannot prove this, but if you look at everything else that's been in my case, this is the most probable, especially the amount of smoke and the things I have pointing towards this, is that some stupid, I don't know, low-level CIA agent had a wet dream and thought that I could turn my wife's parents or something.

Can I prove it's all connected to that?

No.

But the other theories are far less.

I mean, what?

This is just some bumbling mistake that the four embassies and the entire U.S.

government has doubled quadruple down on?

What's the possibility of that?
