Federal prosecutors will drop two felony charges against former CIA analyst and Korea policy expert Sue Mi Terry under a deferred prosecution agreement filed Tuesday in federal court in New York City. The agreement came less than two weeks before Terry was scheduled to stand trial on charges related to acting as an unregistered agent for South Korea. Terry admitted in the agreement to accepting a Bottega Veneta handbag, a Louis Vuitton handbag and a Dolce & Gabbana coat from South Korean officials. The items were valued at about $9,245 combined. She also admitted sharing notes from a meeting with then-Secretary of State Antony Blinken with a South Korean official and raising about $37,000 for her think tank through checks issued directly by South Korea’s embassy in the United States. The 2024 indictment accused Terry of conspiring to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act and failing to register under the law, which requires certain people working on behalf of foreign interests to disclose that relationship. The agreement resolves the case without a trial; the filed details describe the charges prosecutors are set to drop and Terry’s admissions. Terry’s attorney, Lee Wolosky, said she was pleased with the outcome and maintained that her dealings with South Korean officials supported U.S. interests and her work as an American specialist on North Korea and East Asia. Terry served as a CIA analyst before becoming a prominent foreign policy expert.
