60 MINS EXCLUSIVE: SPY ROBERT HANSSEN'S TREACHERY EXTENDS TO SEX LIFE WITH WIFE
Psychiatrist Says Spying Was Hanssen’s Escape From His Sexual Problems
Lesley Stahl has learned that Robert Hanssen, the FBI agent who betrayed his country, also betrayed his church and his wife. Stahl reports that Hanssen invited his best friend to watch him have sex with his wife on a secretly installed television system his wife never knew about. Stahl’s report, part of an investigation that began last June when she first reported that Hanssen had begun spying six years earlier than previously
reported, will be broadcast on
60 MINUTES Sunday, Dec. 16 (7:00-8:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television
Network.
The 60 MINUTES report, pieced together from government sources and Hanssen’s psychiatric profile, names Jack Horschauer, a retired army officer, as the friend he asked to watch the television hooked to a hidden video camera aimed at his marriage bed. Hanssen also sent nude pictures of his wife, Bonnie, to Horschauer, unbeknownst to her, the sources revealed.
Hanssen’s sexual behavior, including posting sexually explicit stories about him and Bonnie on the Internet and numerous visits to strip clubs, where he tried to convert strippers to Catholicism, was part of a psychological disorder, says a psychiatrist who examined him. Spying, for the devoutly religious Hanssen, was a way to escape those sexual problems,
according to the doctor.
Dr. Alan Salerian was hired by Hanssen’s defense team to examine him and then fired for divulging information Salerian claims Hanssen wanted the world to know. “[Hanssen’s] espionage was an escape from his sexual demons. When he found himself in exciting, dangerous positions, such as
espionage and spying, he found that his demons slowed down,” Salerian tells Stahl. “He is driven by demons…by thoughts, unwanted thoughts.”
To former Justice Department investigator John Martin, it was simpler. “He lived a life of treachery and betrayal and he betrayed everyone,” says Martin, a veteran of 76 spy investigations. “I don’t know if the FBI is surfing the pornographic net looking for spies. They may be doing it after this case,”
