The FBI has arrested Linda Sun, the former deputy chief of staff to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D), on charges of acting as an agent for the Chinese government
A former New York state government official who worked for both Govs. Andrew Cuomo (D) and Kathy Hochul (D) was arrested Tuesday after being charged with acting as an agent of the Chinese government.
Linda Sun, who worked for the government from 2012 to 2023 and eventually became Hochul’s deputy chief of staff, was arrested alongside her husband, Chris Hu, at their $3.6 million Long Island home, The Associated Press (AP) reported.
In an indictment filed in the Eastern District of New York and released Tuesday, prosecutors said Sun acted as an undisclosed agent of the government of the People’s Republic of China and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
