Pollard pleaded guilty to espionage and was sentenced to prison for life.

Jonathan Jay Pollard (born August 7, 1954) is a former United States Navy intelligence officer who pled guilty and was convicted on one one count of spying for an ally (Israel), and in 1986 received a life sentence with a recommendation against parole.

Pollard maintains that he provided only information which, at the time, he believed was vital to Israeli security and which was being withheld by the Pentagon, in violation of a 1983 Memorandum of Understanding between the two countries regarding the sharing of vital security intelligence.

San Diego (special) -- A top-ranking U.S. intelligence officer declared in San Diego that Jonathan Jay Pollard had tried to sell U.S. military secrets to South Africa and to Australia before Israel became his customer, and that Pollard's claims to have been a patriot for Israel are phony.

Although Pollard was extremely successful in terms of the volume and quality of secrets he turned over to the Israeli government, he was caught because he was sloppy and because he and his handlers were too greedy, diGenova said.

If Pollard were released to Israel, diGenova speculated, he would be able to examine and explain the stolen material and do further damage to the United States in the critical areas of intelligence sources and methods.

 Amicus Brief In Support of Pollard's ยง2255 Motion
In this case Pollard was even less likely to fathom his prior counsel's mistakes because of various express statements that concealed or camouflaged them.
Similarly misleading was a declaration by one of Pollard's subsequent attorneys that his "prior counsel skillfully negotiated a plea agreement and effectively allocuted for his client." (Exhibit R at p.7).
Likewise, the question of when Jonathan Pollard could have reasonably discovered his counsel's duties and derelictions is a fact-intensive issue that requires a close examination of his conversations with attorneys, the conditions of his confinement since 1987, and other relevant facts.

Dub refused to elaborate on what made him believe a possible deal for Pollard may be forthcoming, saying only that he "sensed" a possible change in status after speaking with Israeli government officials.

Without discussing the merits of the Pollard case, I want you to know that the author of this piece who is known to me is (a) a sloppy researcher,(b) always makes giant,unsubstantiated, leaps from fact to fantasy,(c) should never be relied on.
Even if everything Pollard supporters claim is true, we simply can't have a situation where everyone makes up their own mind as to what information is serious, and what isn't.
If Pollard had robbed a bank and he unintentionally killed one of his hostages, he still would be responsible for that death, the bank robbery, and for the use of a firearm in the commission of his crime.

In November 1985, civilian U.S. Naval Intelligence analyst Jonathan Jay Pollard was arrested and charged with spying for Israel.
Pollard was convicted and is still in Federal prison, but investigators never succeeded in capturing his top-level U.S. accomplices, known as the "X Committee."
Taken together, they may go far beyond the Pollard affair, and may, at last, lay the conditions for cleaning up one of the biggest national security vulnerabilities that the United States has ever faced.
