Two charged as Cuban spies in US
Mr Myers worked at the State Department from 1977 until 2007
A former US official and his wife have been charged with spying for the Cuban government over a 30-year period.
Washington DC residents Walter Myers, 72, and Gwendolyn Myers, 71, are accused of acting as illegal agents for Cuba and wire fraud.
The couple could face up to 20 years in prison if found guilty.
The arrest follows a sting operation by the FBI, in which an agent posing as a Cuban spy persuaded the couple to give him information about their activities.

How long before President obama pardons or drops the charges on these two?
