A former U.S. diplomat, who most recently worked at Foley & Lardner’s Miami office as a senior international business adviser, has indicated he’s pleading guilty of being a spy for the Cuban government.

In a court document filed this week, Victor Manuel Rocha, a former U.S. ambassador to Bolivia, told a judge he intended to plead guilty on federal charges of acting as a foreign agent for Cuba. Rocha was originally arrested back in December after he met with an undercover FBI agent at least three times during 2022 and 2023. During those meetings, he admitted to espionage on behalf of the Cuban government.
