Yunqing Jian, 33, and Zunyong Liu, 34, citizens of the People’s Republic of China, were allegedly receiving Chinese government funding for their research, some of which at the University of Michigan, officials said. "The complaint also alleges that Jian’s electronics contain information describing her membership in and loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party. It is further alleged that Jian’s boyfriend, Liu, works at a Chinese university where he conducts research on the same pathogen and that he first lied but then admitted to smuggling Fusarium graminearum into America -- through the Detroit Metropolitan Airport -- so that he could conduct research on it at the laboratory at the University of Michigan where his girlfriend, Jian, worked," according to a DOJ press release.

“”Jian’s electronics contain information””
Question? What does that mean?
“so that he could conduct research on it at the laboratory at the University of Michigan, where his girlfriend, Jian, worked,”
That story is dumb enough to believe, given the lax security and control in Chinese labs. In a way that makes it worse than if he were a spy.
In my experience, there are an awful lot of naive/entitled people in China.
He should still be sent home, so should his girlfriend.
Inject them with it, and deliver them to Beijing.
Do any good intentions come out of China these days?
They should be sent home ONLY if you believe they did not have bad intensions.
I think they should be detained until intensions are figured out. At a minimum, he should be charged for knowingly smuggling it into the country.
I can agree with that.
Let me rephrase:
The girlfriend should be sent home regardless, even if she wasn’t part of the plot. He should stand trial for, assuming no malicious intent, violating import laws regarding dangerous substances and, at a minimum, be fined, and probably spend time in jail.
Ask him, “What would the PRC do to you if you brought controlled substances into China? Why should we be nicer to you than your government would be to us?”
Put them up against a wall and shoot them.
Sinister.
Trying to infect our wheat and barley crops? Guess who the top producers of wheat and barley are? China, India and Russia. This might be an attempted direct attack in our trade war. And this is exactly what we should be looking out for. Thousands of small attacks on our crops, fires in our forests, arson against our industries and infrastructure.
I think we already have this in the wild, in the US.

Yunqing Jian is from Sichuan, China. She received her Ph.D at Zhejiang University in 2020, and had a two-year postdoc experience there. During her Ph.D training, she studied the mechanisms of how fungi combat with plant-derived stresses. She joined our lab in August, 2022 as a post-doc, and her research mainly focused on evolutionary perspective of RLKs and their ligands.
Since this came from China, you know they have messed with it.................
