A federal grand jury in Brooklyn returned a second superseding indictment that added charges against former Deputy Chief of Staff Linda Sun and her husband and co-defendant, Chris Hu, related to a fraudulent scheme involving the procurement of personal protective equipment (PPE) by the New York State (NYS) government at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
As part of the scheme, Sun steered contracts to vendors with whom she had undisclosed personal connections. She and Hu received millions of dollars from the vendors, including some in the form of kickbacks, which Sun did not disclose to the NYS government.
Additionally, Hu is charged with tax evasion.
