According to a CNN report on May 12, the U.S. Judicial Department issued a message saying that they, in conjunction with the FBI and local governments, formally arrested a man named Hong Sizhong (transliteration) Arkansas on the 8th. A Chinese-American professor in the School of Electrical Engineering at University will prepare for prosecution and review.
According to reports, the justice department sued the professor on the grounds of suspected public fraud. The crime of public fraud is a relatively serious charge in the United States. If the charge is established, the maximum possible sentence is 20 years in prison. The reason for the department's accusation of the crime was that he concealed his work experience when he took office and deceived his work unit's research funding. The indictment also stated that he had cooperated with foreign projects and had e-mail exchanges with foreign friends.
According to the FBI, they also suspect that Hong Sizhong illegally collected some project information at work and provided the research results to the outside world. Although there is no evidence for this statement, officials of the Bureau of Investigation claimed that based on his fraudulent work experience, we have reason to suspect that he may be involved in these crimes. He may continue to face other thorough examinations, including family aspects. And all social aspects, as well as personal previous resumes must be traced.
It is reported that this is not the first incident targeting Asian descent in the United States recently. At the moment when the epidemic began, American institutions or various departments dismissed and accused Asian scholars for many "strange" reasons. Experts say that taking the professor in this case prosecuted for “fraud against the public” as an example, most of the time, it is a common practice for American faculty and staff to fill out similar conflict-of-interest-related forms. Even if there are mistakes, they are often regarded as Work issues. However, the prosecution is a fraud against the public and obviously has other purposes, but the specific purpose is unknown.
The New York Times also reported that although Hong Sizhong is of Chinese descent, he was born in Malaysia and has been working in the United States for a long time. The comments of
also believe that since the beginning of the epidemic, discrimination against Asians has become more "deliberate and bad." The reason is that the Trump administration is guiding public opinion. The current domestic epidemic situation in the United States has become unspeakably serious, but the government is first busy "throwing the pot." The U.S. has reached this point because of a mistake in its anti-epidemic policy. However, it is the Asian people in the country who are unlucky in public opinion. Not only are they abused, beaten, and discriminated against in daily life, but they also have to bear all parties in their work. pressure.
A Chinese virus expert was shot and killed before. His university issued an article stating that this expert's coronavirus research is about to make a breakthrough, which is a major loss.
It is worth mentioning that when the number of infections has exceeded 1.4 million so far, the U.S. government is not busy trying to find ways to control the epidemic, but it is still pouring dirty water and shaking the pot. It is really incomprehensible. Perhaps the professor encountered "strange" The" prosecution incident is a microcosm of the status quo in the United States; but it must be said that this "drama" is being performed simultaneously in every corner of American society.
