FBI arrest NASA worker with bag full of secret documents on a One-way ticket to China

The FBI arrested a Chinese man with a one-way ticket out of U.S. -- a scientist potentially carrying highly confidential military secrets and rocket technology from NASA labs.

Bo Jiang, a contractor at the National Institute of Aerospace (NIA) who had been working at NASA-Langley, was arrested at Dulles International Airport on Saturday by FBI and DHS agents as he was trying to leave the country.


The FBI arrested Jiang before he could leave for China because he appears to have provided false information to federal authorities about the contents of a bag he was carrying. 

Federal agents asked JIANG what electronic media he had with him. JIANG told the Homeland Security Agent that he had a cellphone, a memory stick, an external hard drive and a new computer. However, during the search, other media items rvere located that JIANG did not reveal. Such items found include, an additional laptop, an old hard drive and a SIM card.
