They need to revive that guy. He's got 14 more life sentences to go
-
He lived 20 years longer than he should have.
-
So much negative stuff in the news today. This is heartwarming.
-
There are no tears shed for Robert Hanssen.
-
Considering traitors in the old days were quickly sent to the rope or worse, he got off lightly
-
How much did the taxpayer have to fork out for him for the past 20-odd years?
-
He's 79 years old and been in jail since 2002, so it's doubtful that he died in suspicious circumstances. 🏴
-
Countless people lost their lives because of this traitor. It's about time he left this earth. I hope his victims are resting in peace. 😔🙏
-
At least he isn’t on tax payer dime anymore.
-
Golly, treason can get you prison time? He must not have been rich enough.
-
That’s what traitors get!
-
Good riddance TRAITOR! 💯
-
My Daddy would've loved this, if he didn't pass 16 years ago. He HATED this man, mostly because of the hazards his treason added to work of our servicemen and women.

I am personally not big on the death penalty. But I do think there is a difference when you sign up I. The military or other security services that are meant to protect America and you directly aid our nations adversaries. This man led to the death of several intelligence assets and greatly compromised the security of our country. He deserved the death penalty.
-
Actually, quite pathetic.. to become a traitor for some cash and diamonds, at least these other crazies have some bizarre beliefs as motivation.
-
Finally a feel good story.
-
Remember those who died because of his betrayal.
-
We can rest assured his spirit lives on strong throughout the FBI, though!
-
Thank goodness... its about time.
-
There are lots of things I would do for money but selling out my country is not one of them.
