US drops foreign agent case against ex-CIA analyst Sue Mi Terry via deferred prosecution

The US agreed to a deferred prosecution agreement for former CIA analyst Sue Mi Terry, requiring 12 months of supervision and barring contact with South Korean intelligence officers. This resolves espionage-related charges without a conviction, marking a notable leniency in a national security case. The outcome signals potential diplomatic considerations with South Korea, though the full terms and rationale remain undisclosed.
