A woman carrying two Chinese passports illegally entered President Donald
Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida, Saturday and lied to a Secret
Service agent, according to U.S. authorities.
The suspect, Yujing Zhang, also had four mobile phones, a laptop computer, an
external hard drive and a thumb drive found to contain malware, a Secret
Service agent said in an affidavit filed in support of the charges against her.
The passports were from China, not "Republic of China" -- the formal name of
Taiwan -- as was written in the affidavit, said Marlene Fernandez-Karavetsos, a
spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida.
Zhang appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge William Matthewman Monday,

April 8 and her arraignment for one week later. She remains in federal custody.
Passing signs informing her that she was entering a Secret Service-restricted
area, Zhang told the first agent she met that she was headed to the Mar-a-Lago
pool, presenting her passports as proof of identity, according to the affidavit
submitted by Secret Service Special Agent Samuel Ivanovich.
