Siew Im Cheah, who prosecutors say was involved in several scams, is serving a 51-month prison sentence
The Washington Redskins player and his agent met Cindy Lin at a Porsche dealership in McLean in 2015.
“Had we known she was not being honest about her real identity, age and criminal background, we never would have trusted her,” the sports agent wrote in a letter to the court. She “is very manipulative and has shown no remorse for the heartaches she has caused.”Cheah pleaded guilty this year in Alexandria federal court only to identity theft and fraud, having been caught speeding through southwest Virginia in a Porsche with an old roommate’s driver’s license.Up until her Oct.
Court records say her victims included a chef, a trainer, multiple manicurists and an appointee of a Virginia governor. The sports agent declined to comment and his client, a prominent Redskins player who was not named in court papers, did not return requests for comment.Victims described a mix of anger and awe at Cheah’s near-mystical powers of persuasion. At first she was personable and affectionate.
In court he argued that prosecutors were provoked not by what she did but the mysterious ways she did it.It’s a mystery federal agents have been trying to solve for years. When Cheah’s daughter got married at the Ritz-Carlton in Washington in 2015, FBI agents were watching. Kromberg is a national security prosecutor, and according to a person familiar with the investigation, authorities initially suspected Cheah had ties to Chinese intelligence.
She charmed Perez’s family by saying she wanted “simple and modest pleasures.” She impressed other victims with lies about her grandeur. She said she had access to a government investment fund in Singapore through her family but was “Google-proof” to avoid being killed by the people who kidnapped her father.
