Seems like a broad topic.
That's because humans like to fuck.
broad topic
I see what you did there.
Bravo.
lol, right?
This is by no means a comprehensive list, but- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexpionage
TIL. Looks like a good read. Thanks!
It doesn't work on the French

LMAO before reading the article i thought it was because french was less horny idk, but no, it's the complete opposite
French wife: oh perfect, can he keep bustin in you for a couple more days? I got a young roofer coming over to lay some brick.
Check the history section
You gotta hand it to her. She has the opportunity to help throw him under a bus, and she was the bigger person.
Well, she said 'comfort' and sure, but it's also support, as in child support
I'm not 100% but I'm pretty sure the army will make sure the kid is taken care of regardless. They don't allow deadbeat dads.
They don't even take care of veterans properly, I doubt they'll take care of the kid.
Well he's still technically in the army so he should get paid, and seeing as he's indisposed at the moment, no reason why it shouldn't go to her. Unless he took her off his beneficiary list, though I doubt he did.

I think child support is already being paid as soon as she said she is going to divorce him. It doesn't require him to agree. The military will just garnish his wages.
I think he may be technically AWOL, which probably complicates things... Not sure how that would work.
Lol what are you talking about?
They will garnish your wages. As a service member you don't have the same rights in court. If parentage is established, the military just starts sending a chunk of your paycheck to the custodial parent.
That doesn't mean Jack to a lot of deadbeats. Hence the name "deadbeat"
Do you know what it is to garnish wages? They just cut a check to the custodial parent. The would be deadbeat grunt just doesn't get his money to make payments on a jixer or Camero or whatever.
Also thinking about her daughter's well-being in all this - all in all not your average kind of person.
"Send him back so I can kill him myself"?
Yeah, well we've all been there. Who among us can resist the international femme fatale of a hostile nation state?
That seems like an even dumber reason to waltz into Russia.
Perhaps none of the women in any other nationality were interested in him.
Aw. And neither was this "woman", who it seems was just Russian ops trying to lure another dumb American hostage.
Not all the Russian honeypot and money in the world could convince me to step foot in that shithole of a nation.
Seems worth noting he's not being charged with anything spying or geopolitics related, but instead he's been charged with theft. No details in the article about what he's accused of having stolen. Seems like almost the only notable fact in this whole story is his being a US soldier in Russia, otherwise there's a ton of Americans accused of pretty crimes while abroad every day.
I suspect it's about to become another american-held-hostage thing; like with Greiner.
I hope they don't exchange a high profile arms dealer for this one.
do we have another high profile arms dealer?
I hope we don't trade one either. Or something as bad.
If he actually committed theft in Russia then that's hilarious. But this could easily be Russia playing it low key until they need a US spy headline for domestic consumption.
That is why most people go to Russia
