The FBI is offering a $200,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of former U.S. Air Force special agent and counterintelligence specialist Monica Witt, who was charged in 2019 with espionage in connection with accusations she shared highly classified U.S. intelligence with Iran.The FBI said in a statement Thursday that it's still trying to locate Witt, who they say defected to Iran in 2013."The FBI has not forgotten and believes that during this critical moment in Iran's history, there is someone who knows something about her whereabouts," said Daniel Wierzbicki, special agent in charge of the FBI Washington Field Office's Counterintelligence and Cyber Division. "The FBI wants to hear from you so you can help us apprehend Witt and bring her to justice."
