Harold James Nicholson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Harold James Nicholson (born in 1950) is a former Central Intelligence Agency officer, who in 1997 was convicted of spying for Russia and sentenced to 23 years in prison. Although his case received far less publicity than that of Aldrich Ames, and apparently caused less damage to US security, Nicholson was the highest ranking CIA official ever convicted for spying for a foreign country.
