  1. When she was asked in court whether she regretted what she did, she said: “I regret I didn’t do this 70 years ago.”

  2. Interesting thing about that break-in: it resulted in the company responsible for security at the installation (Y-12 nuclear weapons facility) being fired, and the Dept of Energy taking over security itself. The security company, G4S, also known as Wackenhut, used the Y-12 security contract as a loss-leader, having never made a profit on the contract, but marketing itself as guarding the nation’s nuclear stockpile.
