Aldrich Ames offered to cooperate with the U.S. Government if they would release Rosario and not charge her with any crimes. The government, however, had enough evidence on her to prosecute so they refused a deal. Rosario was nowhere near as loving towards her husband, blaming him for deceiving and manipulating her. She was convicted and sentenced to five years in prison and was promptly deported upon her parole. She moved back to Columbia where her mother was caring for the Ames' son.

Aldrich Ames was sentenced to life in a federal prison.
