We discuss the 2010 Russian “illegal” spies arrested in the U.S. as part of the FBI’s “Operation Ghost Stories.” We look at the case in-depth, focusing on Richard and Cynthia Murphy, two “Illegals” who posed as run-of-the-mill suburbanites in the idyllic town of Montclair, New Jersey. CW | TW: This episode discusses Russian spies who lived in Montclair, NJ. And it wasn’t for the eclectic cafes or over-priced parking lots. Listener discretion is advised.
