SDNY
COURTHOUSE,
May 4 – After
a circus-like
civil case
involving Guo
Wengui in SDNY,
which Inner
City Press
closely
covered, here,
March 15, 2023
saw the
unsealing of a
criminal
indictment.
Not mentioned was
another, related arrest on
March 15, of Guo's chief of
staff Yanping Wang, aka Yvette
Wang. Inner City Press live
tweeted her presentment when
the prosecutors offered
release on $5 million bond,
but only with two co-signers
they approve.
On March
22, Inner City Press was again
the only media in the SDNY
Magistrates Court when Yvette
Wang and her two lawyers
showed up, complaining that a
proposed suretor with a $2.5
million property was rejected.
Afterward Inner City Press
asked Wang's lawyer Alex
Lipman to confirm it is or was
Steve Bannon. He said, "We're
not going to answer."
