Olympian Katie Uhlaender isn't surprised by latest twist to Russian doping scandal

Russian spies travel the world hacking into wifi networks at hotels, exposing medical records of targeted individuals and leaking the private information on the internet.

If it sounds like the plot of the latest spy thriller by Jason Matthews, that’s unfortunate. It’s actually what the Department of Justice describes in a conspiracy that was conducted by seven Russian GRU intelligence officers, according to an indictment announced Thursday.

A grand jury indicted the seven for computer hacking, wire fraud, aggravated identity theft and money laundering.

Four-time U.S. Olympian Katie Uhlaender says she’s not surprised by much in the news surrounding Russia’s state-sponsored doping scheme.
