10 Russian Spies on Chartered Plane to Vienna

The 10 Russian spies who pleaded guilty Thursday in one of the biggest spy ring busts in recent history, boarded a plane chartered by the U.S. government Thursday evening with a flight plan for Vienna.

They were accompanied by U.S. Marshals who will keep them in custody until they are turned over to the Russians in first spy swap between the U.S. and Russia in 24 years.

All 10 spies pleaded guilty in a New York court Thursday afternoon to one criminal count of conspiracy to act as unregistered agents of a foreign country. They were sentenced to time already served, which amounted to 11 days. .... - 10 Russian Spies on Chartered Plane to Vienna
