Ames disclosed the identities of 10 Russian officials and one Eastern European who were spying for the United States or Great Britain, along with spy satellite operations and eavesdropping procedures. His betrayals are blamed for the executions of Western agents.

He pleaded guilty without trial to espionage and tax evasion in 1994 and was sentenced to life in prison without parole. Prosecutors said he deprived the United States of valuable intelligence material for years and compromised dozens of operations.

Ames professed profound shame and guilt for his betrayal, done for money to pay debts. However, he downplayed the damage, telling the court he did not believe he had noticeably damaged the United States or noticeably aided Moscow.

Ames was working in the Soviet division at CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia, when he first approached the KGB. He continued passing secrets while stationed in Rome and after returning to Washington as the intelligence community tried to determine why agents were being discovered.

His wife, Rosario Ames, pleaded guilty to lesser espionage charges of assisting his spying and was sentenced to 63 months in prison. Ames's spying coincided with that of FBI agent Robert Hanssen, who was caught in 2001 and died in prison in 2023.
