Bastages. The Walker family of spies almost singlehandedly caused the whole Pueblo incident.

Ditto with Boyce and Lee (The Falcon and the Snowman; both are now on parole), William Kampiles (sold a KH-11 spysat manual to the Russkies), among a few others... The intelligence community is absolutely shit-scared that their security lapses and intelligence failures will become dirty laundry aired in public.
But none gets my blood to boiling than the Walker family spy ring. They shoulda gotten hanging by piano wire from meathooks, much like Adolf Hitler did with the ringleaders of the July 20, 1944 bomb assassination plot against him. (Hitler was said to have watched a film of their slow, torturous execution.)
