[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Yujing Zhang is charged with lying to the Secret Service to enter Mar-a-Lago

  • The 33-year-old Shanghai business consultant wanted to dismiss public defenders and represent herself

  • And a U.S. District Judge found her to be competent and granted her request

  • That's despite the fact she struggles with legal concepts and spoken English

  • Zhang faces up to six years in prison and $250,000 in fines if convicted

  • In March she is said to have told a receptionist that she was at the resort for a Chinese-American event in the evening but no such event was scheduled

  • She was further questioned by agents who say they found four cellphones, a laptop, an external hard drive and a thumb drive containing computer malware
