Liu Sixing, also know as Steve Liu, was arrested at his home in Deerfield,
Illinois and charged with one count of exporting defense-related technical
data without a license, the Justice Department said in a statement.
Liu, a Chinese national with permanent residency in the United States,
worked for the New Jersey-based company L-3 Communications from March 2009
until November 2010 as a senior engineer on a team developing precision
navigation devices.
Court documents say he boarded a flight from Newark last November to China,
but upon returning from Shanghai, he was found to have a non-work issued
computer containing hundreds of documents about the company's projects.
There were also images of a presentation Liu made to a technology conference
organized by the Chinese government, the statement said.
Apparently, border agents' suspicions were aroused when the agents found a
conference lanyard in his luggage during a secondary inspection at New
Jersey's Newark Liberty International Airport. Liu had said he'd been in
China to visit family.
"Customs officers found a folder containing multiple pages of technical
language, pictures of military weapons systems, and documents written in
Chinese," wrote U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation Special Agent Lisa
Lenches-Marrero, in an affidavit listing the charges against Liu. Border
guards also found a laptop. After obtaining a search warrant, federal
investigators then discovered hundreds of company documents on Liu's
computer, including several that contained technical data on guidance and
control systems governed by U.S. arms export control laws.
