A former top aide to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul was arrested by the FBI Tuesday morning, a senior law enforcement official said. The charges against Linda Sun, who left the governor's office nearly two years ago, were not immediately clear. Her husband, Chris Hu, was also arrested. The FBI and a spokesman for the Eastern District of New York both confirmed the arrests but declined to comment on the nature of the charges.
According to her government bio, Sun was appointed deputy chief of staff to Hochul, a Democrat, in September 2021. At the time, she was the highest-appointed Asian American in the administration. After leaving Hochul’s office, she served briefly as a deputy secretary in the state Labor Department. A person familiar with the circumstances of her departure said she was fired after evidence of misconduct was discovered.
