NEW YORK — President Donald Trump pardoned a former New York Police Department officer convicted in federal court of acting as an agent of China, though he had two GOP lawmakers in his corner, proclaiming his innocence.
A federal jury found Michael McMahon, a retired NYPD sergeant turned private investigator, guilty of acting as a foreign agent and interstate stalking after a two-week trial in June 2023. The jury acquitted him on a count of conspiracy to act as a foreign agent.
According to prosecutors, McMahon was “a critical member” of a Chinese campaign to intimidate dissident Xu Jin, a former Wuhan city official, and his family, with the end goal of pressuring Xu into returning to China.

The full CBS interview with Trump about the pardon of Binance's Changpeng Zhao is shocking. "Why did you pardon him?" "I have no idea who he is. I was told that he was a victim … They sent him to jail and they really set him up. That's my opinion. I was told about it." pic.twitter.com/9aVcIym27h
