A man is facing charges for allegedly stealing nearly $350,000 from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department (LVMPD) Foundation, diverting funds to another nonprofit he managed. This incident is part of a broader issue involving fraudulent activities targeting immigrants in the Las Vegas area, where individuals were promised assistance in obtaining U.S. citizenship. Additionally, a Chinese investor claims to have been defrauded of $530,000 by a hotel developer linked to a donor of New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The investor, Jean Xie, had sought information about the Mayflower Hotel Group for nearly a decade after they failed to deliver on promises of a green card and a full refund for her investment. Reports indicate that Xie was unable to trace the hotel developer until recent investigative journalism shed light on the matter.
For nearly a decade, Jean Xie has been searching for Mayflower Hotel Group, which promised her a green card and a full refund if she invested in a hotel that a key Eric Adams donor was the developer of. Those promises never came to be. W/ @DocumentedNY https://t.co/USNYJciURS
She had money to buy a $5 million Hudson yards pad in cash, host a fundraiser for Eric Adams where donors say they were reimbursed, and build two Manhattan hotels, but not to pay back this desperate investor in China. Great @KEXU3 @Documentedny reporting. https://t.co/1bBFWPQeiF
