- A Chinese woman who got through security checkpoints at President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida carrying a thumb drive coded with"malicious" software was arrested on Saturday for entering a restricted property and making false statements to officials, according to a court filing.
Zhang produced two Chinese passports displaying her photo and said she wanted to go to the pool. Secret Service officers could not initially find her name on an access list for the property, according to the Secret Service affidavit filed with the court. Resort personnel became suspicious after Zhang appeared to have trouble explaining why she was visiting Mar-a-Lago, according to the affidavit.
A receptionist then contacted Secret Service personnel who questioned Zhang and concluded she did not have"any legitimate documentation" authorizing her entry to Mar-a-Lago, according to the filing.
