UN Affiliated Fraudster Cary Yan Gets Deal For 57 to 60 Months For Marshall Islands Bribery

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell Book
BBC - Honduras - CIA Trial Book - NY Mag

SDNY / UN GATE, Dec 1 – Chinese fraudster and businessman Cary Yan was the subject of a Federal indictment unsealed on September 2, 2022, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.   

Using a UN-affiliated non-governmental organization, Yan paid bribes in New York to officers of the Marshall Islands and others. Indictment on Inner City Press' DocumentCloud here.

  In 2018, Inner City Press from inside the UN reported on Cary Yan's suspicious activities, (including video here, and bribe-bought promotion by UNCA here) as it was reporting on the parallel UN bribery by Patrick Ho of Ye Jianming's NGO CEFC China Energy.

On December 1, 2022, Yan and his co-defendant pled guilty. Inner City Press was there - thread:

OK - Cary Yan is here is orange WCDOC prison garb, signing a lot if papers. Sure looks like a guilty plea. 

While waiting for Judge Buchwald, it's worth noting she recently sentenced UN rapist Elkorany. Today's UN is irredeemably corrupt.

Proceeding still hasn't started because Yan's lawyer and his co-defendant's lawyer are whispering and gesticulating.
All rise!

Judge: One of the defendant was in the COVID quarantine wing. Was there a positive test? A: Not since in the US. Judge: This will be a guilty plea. 

Yan: I am 52. Yan: I plead guilty. Judge: The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act conspiracy count has a maximum of 5 years. (Counts 2-5 are being dropped for the plea deal).

AUSA: The defendant operated corruptly, offering payments to a foreign official [which happens every day in the UN of  Antonio Guterres , and on Dec 9, a few miles south, near to  SDNY here 

Cary Yan: I am a citizen of the Marshall Islands [! He says with 2 US Marshals behind him. Note: Even UN briber Ng Lap Seng didn't cite his various Caribbean passports.

Now Q&A turns to the plea agreement that was being signed.  Yan is reading his allocution to the crime in Chinese. Of course, he bought Marshall Islands citizenship.

Yan: I headed an NGO. I agreed to bribe Marshalese officials, including in the USA... Manhattan. [United Nations -outrageous claims there, in ECOSOC chamber]

 The plea agreement for Cary Yan has a stipulated guideline sentence of 57 to 60 months. 

Guilty plea is accepted by the judge. Sentencing set for late Feb but could be earlier since parents' visa running out.

[Update: after Inner City Press' initial report, Yan retained Jonathan Bolz, who also represented Patrick Ho. Word is Yan was extradited in from Thailand and will be presented before the assigned District Judge Naomi Reice Buchwald, who also presided over sentencing to 15 years of UN rapist Karim Elkorany]

Soon thereafter, Inner City Press was thrown out of the UN by Secretary General Antonio Guterres, who omitted from his financial disclosures his link to CEFC.
