💨 Abstract

A former New York City police sergeant, Michael McMahon, was sentenced to 1.5 years in prison for acting as an illegal Chinese agent. He was convicted of interstate stalking and acting as an agent of China without notifying the U.S. attorney general, but acquitted of conspiracy to act as a foreign agent. The conviction is part of a broader push by the Biden administration to combat transnational repression by authoritarian U.S.
