California-based Navy sailor pleads guilty to providing sensitive military information to China_我的网站

一 |     LOS ANGELES -- A U.S. Navy sailor charged with providing sensitive military information to China pleaded guilty in Los Angeles on Tuesday to conspiring with a foreign intelligence officer and receiving a bribe, federal prosecutors said. Petty Officer Wenheng Zhao, 26, originally pleaded not guilty when he was charged Aug. 4. The Justice Department alleges that Zhao, based at Naval Base Ventura County, north of Los Angeles, conspired to collect nearly $15,000 in bribes from a Chinese intelligence officer in exchange for information, photos and videos of involving Navy exercises, operations and facilities.The information included plans for a large-scale U.S. military exercise in the Indo-Pacific region, which detailed the location and timing of naval force movements, prosecutors said. The Chinese officer told Zhao the information was needed for maritime economic research to inform investment decisions, according to the indictment.Zhao, who also went by the name Thomas Zhao and held a U.S. security clearance, “admitted he engaged in a corrupt scheme to collect and transmit sensitive U.S. military information to the intelligence officer in violation of his official duties,” the U.S. Attorney's Office said in a news release Tuesday. Zhao, of Monterey Park, California, faces a statutory maximum penalty of 20 years in federal prison. He has been in custody since his arrest on Aug. 3.Zhao was charged on the same day as another California-based Navy sailor who is accused of similar crimes. But they are separate cases, and federal officials haven't said if the two were courted or paid by the same Chinese intelligence officer as part of a larger scheme. Jinchao Wei, a 22-year-old assigned to the San Diego-based USS Essex, is charged with providing detailed information on the weapons systems and aircraft aboard the Essex and other amphibious assault ships that act as small aircraft carriers. He pleaded not guilty in federal court in San Diego. Last week, a former U.S. Army intelligence officer was charged in Seattle with attempting to provide classified defense information to the Chinese security services during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Sgt. Joseph Daniel Schmidt, 29, was arrested Oct. 6 at San Francisco International Airport as he arrived from Hong Kong, where he had been living since March 2020, the Justice Department said. A federal grand jury returned an indictment charging him with retention and attempted delivery of national defense information. U.S. District Court records in Seattle did not yet list an attorney representing Schmidt on the charges, and neither the U.S. attorney’s office nor the federal public defender’s office had information about whether he had a lawyer.An FBI declaration filed in the case quoted Schmidt as telling his sister in an email that he left the U.S. because he disagreed with unspecified aspects of American policy.。    朋友们大家好，这里是栋哥笔谈频道，感谢各位朋友阅读支持。在此恭祝朋友们新的一年财源滚滚，万事顺遂！前一段时间，安徽寿县一村民因为开自己的皮卡车给地里的农机打了一千多元的柴油，被当地的路政部门罚款3万元事件，引起了广大网友的关注和质疑！并一直霸居热榜，引起了广泛的社会关注。

二 | 事件回顾：事情发生在2024年11月，安徽寿县村民顾先生正在田地里忙着秋收，本来这个季节应该是充满着丰收的喜悦，但没想到因为他的一次打柴油行为，让其陷入烦恼之中。

三 | 由于地里的收割机柴油用尽，于是顾先生就开着自己的皮卡车去附近加油站打了一千多元的柴油。

四 | 没想到在回村的路上被当地路政部门拦了下来，执法部门以顾先生的车没有运输柴油资质为由，又是扣车又是扣油，并对顾先生进行罚款3万元。

五 | 事后村里的干部也向执法部门出具了详细证明，表示打这点柴油完全是村民自己收割机用，但是并没有被他们采纳，村民最后卖了秋收的粮食也才一万多元，随后又借了一万多交上罚款。当地执法部门表示他们处罚已经很人性化了，村民不服可以申请行政复议2024年12月，淮南交运执法支队三大队工作人员表示，他们的处罚已是很人性化，已经是最低处罚。于是当事人顾先生向相关部门提交行政复议申请。视频加载中...事件最新进展：2025年1月1日，有知情人表示，顾先生不服该处罚，申请的行政复议已经成功，被罚的3万元，已经被当地有关部门退回。网友热议：网友表示，既然退款了那就说明罚3万元就是错误的，就是站不住脚的，就可能构成了违法行为，就应该对当时的执法人员追责，不能仅仅退款了事。网友表示，如果不是舆论的影响，如果不是广大网民的正义支持，想让他们承认错误，那真的是难得很。被报道之后，当地的路政部门可是一直认为自己罚款没有任何问题的。网友表示，此次的案件也具有广泛的参考意义，这也就是说给各种农机加油，用村民自己的皮卡车或者各种小车装载就应该是合规合法，希望有关部门不要罚款，除非你们主动把柴油免费及时的给运到田间地头。

六 | 朋友们，你们是如何看待有关部门退款这件事情的呢？大家可以在评论区一起聊一下吧！。
