Two Chinese scientists accused of smuggling or shipping biological material into the United States for use at the University of Michigan will remain in custody after waiving their right to a hearing Friday in federal court.
Yunqing Jian and Chengxuan Han said in separate court appearances in Detroit that they would not challenge the government’s request to keep them locked up while their cases move forward.
“This is a constantly evolving situation involving a large number of factors,” Han’s attorney, Sara Garber, told a judge. She didn’t elaborate and later declined to comment.
Han was arrested Sunday at Detroit Metropolitan Airport after arriving on a flight from China, where she is pursuing an advanced degree at Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan. She planned to spend a year completing a project at the University of Michigan lab, and is accused of shipping biological material months ago to laboratory staff.
It was intercepted by authorities. The FBI, in a court filing, said the material is related to worms and lacked a government permit. Experts told The Associated Press it didn’t appear to be dangerous.
Jian’s case is different. She is charged with conspiring with her boyfriend, another scientist from China, to bring a toxic fungus into the U.S. Fusarium graminearum can attack wheat, barley, maize and rice.
The boyfriend, Zunyong Liu, was turned away at the Detroit airport last July and sent back to China after authorities found red plant material in his backpack.
Jian, who worked at the university lab, was arrested June 2. Messages between Jian and Liu in 2024 suggest that Jian was already tending to Fusarium graminearum at the lab before Liu was caught at the airport, the FBI said.
Jian’s attorneys declined to comment Friday.

Put each in a sealed box.
Ask each what they would like the other to be subjected to.
Then do so.
Then swap.
Update on these clowns. From Aug -

Oh, wait. They’re two women. Never mind.
Will Eric Swallowell be allowed to make conjugal visits?
Interesting how none of the usual Leftists are rioting here - even though these clowns looked like they’re also into mass killings of The Infidel, hence there should be rioting.
Just shows, yet again, that the riots we have been seeing are NOT organic.
Beats getting taken out by Chinese hitmen in the US who are ordered to enforce compliance.
Federal district court judge Mao Tse Dung orders their immediate release, “This orange man, he no king. Numba 10!”
How many others is what l keep thinking.
Send them to Gitmo and tell them we will come back in 20 years for your trial.
They waved their right for bail because they have a price on their heads. They are safer in jail.. China don’t want them talking.

I’m surprised that some 0’Biden ‘judge’ hasn’t ordered them released with their bioweapons to continue their mission to destroy America.
