Believing She Was Highly Influenced

For Alex, he claims that he believes that the Anna he married was not the same woman who was arrested. He explained, “I thought I knew her but she has taken this path I don’t believe she consciously knew she was going down. I believe in my heart there has been some sort of influence on her, some sort of conditioning, then when push came to shove, she found herself in a situation she couldn’t get out of.”

Pleading Guilty

Anna would end up going up pleading ‘guilty to conspiracy to act as an agent of a foreign government without notifying the U.S. Attorney General.’ Apparently, she was known by a number of different names too, aside from Anna Chapman. Others knew her as Anna Kushchenko, Anya Kuschenko and Anya Chapman. This would only make people believe that she was a true Russian spy working undercover.
