A retired NYPD sergeant and two Chinese nationals are charged with working with the Chinese government to harass and intimidate Chinese dissidents living in the U.S.
A retired NYPD sergeant is charged with working with the Chinese government to harass and intimidate Chinese dissidents living in the U.S.A retired NYPD sergeant and two purported Chinese agents used an elderly father as bait in an alleged plot to repatriate a former Chinese government official living in New Jersey, according to federal prosecutors in Brooklyn, where trial opens Wednesday.
According to court records, McMahon, Yong Zhu, Congying Zhen and others forced John Doe-1's elderly father to travel from China so he could warn his son, in a surprise visit, about the consequences of refusing to return to China. At another point, two conspirators, including Zheng, "visited John Doe-1's residence, banged on his front door, walked into his yard, and ultimately left a message taped to the residence that threatened John Doe-1 and John Doe-1's family with dire consequences should they fail to return to the PRC."
"Every single day I wake up and I tell him you did absolutely nothing wrong," said Martha Byrne. "You did no crime -- bottom line -- and everyone needs to know that. And they will. Starting today." McMahon's lawyer said McMahon did what any PI would do -- he tracked down addresses and did surveillance, but never knew it was on behalf of the Chinese government.
