No espionage charge in indictment against Chinese intruder arrested at Mar-a-Lago

Authorities have formally charged Yujing Zhang — the Chinese woman arrested trying to enter Mar-a-Lago last month — with lying to a federal agent and entering restricted property without permission. They are the same charges as those listed against Zhang in the original criminal complaint.

The indictment, filed Friday, does not include espionage charges, despite authorities continuing to treat her case as a national-security matter, according to sources familiar with an ongoing counterintelligence investigation.

I don't think they are done with her. Keep her close with the first charge while they are doing a more in depth investigation.

"Authorities could still choose to bring espionage charges against Zhang, a financial investor and consultant based in Shanghai."
