The charges include obstruction of justice for allegedly destroying evidence after FBI agents asked about use of a law enforcement database with information on US-based Chinese dissidents.
WASHINGTON DC, USA – US prosecutors charged two men tied to the US Department of Homeland Security as part of what federal law enforcement officials have called a “transnational repression scheme” on behalf of the Chinese government to spy on and harass dissidents living in the United States.
The two men charged were Craig Miller, who has worked as a DHS deportation officer for 15 years in Minnesota; and Derrick Taylor, a retired DHS law enforcement agent now working as a private investigator in California, the US Department of Justice said on Thursday, July 7.
