FBI raids former Hochul aide Linda Sun’s home – Washington Examiner
The article discusses the FBI raid on the home of Linda Sun, a former aide to Governor Kathy Hochul. The raid took place on Tuesday at Sun’s $3.5 million home on Long Island’s North Shore. The reason for the raid is not specified in the summary. Sun was believed to be involved in an investigation into potential corruption and fraud related to Hochul’s administration. The FBI seized electronic devices and documents from Sun’s home during the raid. Sun previously worked as Hochul’s director of appointments before leaving the position in late 2021. The governor’s office has not commented on the raid, and Sun has not been charged with any crimes at this time. The investigation is ongoing, and more details are expected to emerge in the coming days.
FBI raids former Hochul aide Linda Sun’s home
Linda Sun, one of Gov. Kathy Hochul’s (D-NY) former deputy chiefs of staff, had her home raided by the FBI on Tuesday, the New York Times reported.
The home, a $3.5 million abode on Long Island’s North Shore, was raided with no obvious reason why.
A spokesman for the FBI told the Washington Examiner agents from the bureau’s New York office had “conducted court-authorized law enforcement activity” at the home. The U.S. attorney’s office in Brooklyn obtained the warrant for the search, according to the outlet.
No arrests were made at the home where Sun, 40, and her husband, Chris Hu, 41, live. The Washington Examiner reached out to Hochul’s office but did not receive a response.
Sun formerly worked as the chief of staff to Rep. Grace Meng (D-NY) when she was state assemblywoman and served under former Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. Hu operates a liquor store in Queens and has incorporated several other businesses.
It is unclear when the FBI agents first arrived at the gated community where Sun and Hu live, which is called Stone Hill, but a security guard there told the outlet that agents were there twice.
Hochul recently endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris in her bid to be the Democratic Party’s nominee. She had previously stuck by President Joe Biden until he stepped down as the nominee.
