Katrina Leung, who allegedly illegally obtained classified FBI documents while acting as a double agent for China, was freed on $2-million bond on the condition that she be monitored, federal authorities said Friday.
Leung, 49, a wealthy businesswoman from San Marino, was released from the downtown Los Angeles Metropolitan Detention Center late Thursday and is being monitored by the U.S. Marshals Service, a federal prison official said.
Under the terms of her release, Leung is restricted to her home, her lawyers’ offices and an unidentified location where defense attorneys are to review classified government documents in the case.
She had been held without bail since her arrest April 9.
