Under interrogation, Gold admitted that he had been involved in espionage since 1934 and had helped Fuchs pass information about the [[Manhattan Project]] to the Soviet Union by way of Soviet General Consul [[Anatoli Yakovlev]]. Gold's confession led to the arrest of [[David Greenglass]]. His testimony resulted in the arrest, trial and execution of Ethel and [[Julius Rosenberg]], though in later trials he was revealed to be a somewhat unreliable witness. | Under interrogation, Gold admitted that he had been involved in espionage since 1934 and had helped Fuchs pass information about the [[Manhattan Project]] to the Soviet Union by way of Soviet General Consul [[Anatoli Yakovlev]].
