Chen Jinping, a 61-year-old resident of Manhattan, pleaded guilty in federal court to conspiracy charges related to operating a secret police station for the Chinese government in lower Manhattan. Prosecutors revealed that this station was established by China's Ministry of Public Security to intimidate and harass Chinese dissidents living in the U.S. Chen's guilty plea, announced on December 18, 2024, marks a significant development in the case against him and his co-defendant, Lu Jianwang, who is scheduled to appear in court in February 2025. Chen faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison, with sentencing set for May 30, 2025.
