FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - A U.S. jail’s failure to provide underwear needed to change out of prison garb and into street clothes delayed the start of jury selection in the trial of a Chinese national charged with lying her way into President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.
Yujing Zhang, 33, arrived at a federal court in Fort Lauderdale on Monday wearing the brown uniform she has worn in detention since she was arrested at the Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach in March while carrying multiple electronic devices, sparking a probe as to whether she posed an intelligence threat.
The judge told her she had the right to change into street clothes and out of the prison garb before she is seen by any potential jurors. “I don’t know very much about. I don’t even know why I’m here today. I thought my case was canceled,” Zhang told the judge.At the time of Zhang’s arrest, in an incident that raised concerns about security at the Mar-a-Lago resort, investigators found in Zhang’s possession four cellphones, a laptop computer, an external hard drive device and a thumb drive, the Secret Service said in a court filing.
