Chinese-Born Researcher at Cleveland Clinic Accused of Fraud, Links to Espionage
2020-05-17
[BREITBART] The FBI announced on Thursday that it has arrested Dr. Qing Wang, a longtime employee of the famed Cleveland, kept in touch with the world by Obamaphone,

Clinic, on charges of fraud for accepting grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) without disclosing that he was simultaneously working for a Chinese university.

"This is not a case of simple omission. Dr. Wang deliberately failed to disclose his Chinese grants and foreign positions and even engaged in a pervasive pattern of fraud to avoid criminal culpability," said Eric B. Smith, FBI Special Agent in Charge (SAC) of the Cleveland office.

"As alleged in the complaint, this defendant misled the National Institutes of Health about support he received and research he conducted in the People’s Republic of China," said Justin Herdman, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio. "Federal law enforcement remains vigilant to fraudulent claims for grant support from any researcher who fails to disclose support from foreign governments and competing research interests in other countries."

Robert R. Wells, Acting Assistant Director of the FBI Counterintelligence Division, made the espionage connection, saying, "As this case demonstrates, Chinese government-supported talent plans continue to encourage people, regardless of nationality, to commit crimes, such as fraud to obtain U.S. taxpayer-funded research."
