Hanssen was recruited by the Soviet Union in the early 1980s. He was motivated by a combination of greed and ideology. He believed that the Soviet Union was a more just and equitable society than the United States, and he wanted to help the Soviet Union achieve its goals.

Hanssen provided the Soviet Union with a wealth of information, including details about FBI investigations, counterintelligence operations, and even the identities of undercover FBI agents. His information helped the Soviet Union to identify and neutralize American spies, and it also helped the Soviet Union to develop new strategies for countering American intelligence efforts.

Hanssen's betrayal was eventually discovered by the FBI in 2001. He was arrested and charged with espionage. He pleaded guilty to all charges and was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
