The alleged Mar-a-Lago trespasser is indicted on two charges but no spying charge
Yujing Zhang, the Chinese national accused of carrying malware on a thumb drive into the Mar-a-Lago resort last month, was indicted by a federal grand jury on Friday for unlawfully entering a restricted zone and for lying to Secret Service agents.
The indictment on Friday closely adheres to parts of the criminal complaint prosecutors levied against her when she was first detained by the Secret Service and FBI. Prosecutors in court have suggested Zhang could have been trying to spy, but that is not reflected in the court filing Friday. The case so far has called into question foreigners' interest in Mar-a-Lago and the President's family, and the security at the compound President Donald Trump frequents.
