A former Pentagon analyst was sentenced Friday to almost five years in prison for giving secret information about U.S.-Taiwan military relations to a New Orleans furniture salesman who turned out to be a Chinese spy.

At a sentencing hearing in U.S. District Court, Gregg W. Bergersen, 51, of Alexandria, apologized and said he never meant to hurt his country.

Kuo, 58, who has pleaded guilty to espionage, is scheduled to be sentenced later this month. He is a naturalized U.S. citizen and a native of Taiwan. His family is prominent in Taiwan -- he is the son-in-law of Xue Yue, a Chinese nationalist general who was a close associate of Chiang Kai-shek.
