A woman accused of stealing Motorola corporate secrets denies that she is a spy. In a federal indictment, former Motorola software engineer Huanjuan Jin is accused of copying hundreds of documents from Motorola’s internal servers and then trying to board a plane to China. She claims that her supervisor overloaded her with work and that she was merely taking the documents to keep up, but prosecutors say her motives were much more sinister.
Two years ago, Jin took a medical leave of absence from Motorola claiming that she had a life-threatening disease. She flew to China where authorities allege that she met with representatives of a Chinese computer company. Apparently she agreed to steal Motorola secrets and the prosecutors say she downloaded more than 600 documents from Motorola’s servers when she got back – those are some real secure servers you got there Motorola. Jin then copied everything to her laptop, portable hard drives and USB flash sticks and headed to O’Hare airport with a one-way ticket to Beijing. [1] More
