FBI affidavit - Wired

C. Persons who have engaged in espionage activities on behalf of foreign intelligence
services and persons who knowingly assist those engaged in espionage activities; routinely
conceal in their residences or the residences of trusted associates aware of their criminal conduct,
large amounts of currency and other items of value and/or proceeds of illegal espionage
transactions. They also conceal records relating to hidden foreign and domestic bank accounts
and financial records, including accounts in fictitious names. I believe that NATI-IANIEL may
be making efforts to conceal the money he is collecting on behalf of his father, either in foreign
banks accounts, by collecting the money in foreign currency (Euros) as NICHOLSON advised in
the August 31,2008, letter to NATHANIEL, or at the residence of Betty and Marvin Nicholson.
D. Persons who have been engaged in espionage activities on behalf of foreign
intelligence services and persons who knowingly assist those engaged in espionage activities,
often conceal important documents or materials, as well as clandestine communications
instructions, contact instructions, codes, telephone numbers, maps, photographs, other papers and
materials relating to communications procedures in secure hidden locations and compartments
within their residences and vehicles or in residences or vehicle of trusted associates aware of
their criminal activity.
E. Persons who have been engaged in espionage activities on behalf of foreign
intelligence services, and persons who knowingly assist those engaged in espionage activities, are
not unlike any other person in our society in that they maintain documents and records, often
doing so for long periods of time, regardless of whether their value to the person has diminished.
These persons maintain documents and records that will identify and corroborate travel both in
the United States and abroad made in connection with contact with foreign intelligence officers.
