C. Jesse Zhu Enters the United States and Assumes the Alias “David He”
At some point, Zhu appears to have entered the United States unlawfully, given that he was subject to a Canadian arrest warrant. While in the United States, he began to operate under the false identity of “David He.”[1]
The following evidence establishes that Zhu is using “David He” as an alias. First, federal law enforcement confirmed this information in their federal complaint.[2] Second, employees working in the Reedley Biolab told local officials that “David He” is in fact Jesse Zhu. Third, Select Committee investigators discovered numerous documents belonging to IND Group and Jesse Zhu in the Reedley Biolab. These include thousands of pages of (i) IND Group, AIDE, and other Zhu companies’ corporate documents; (ii) tax records for Zhu and these companies; and (iii) personal notes that appear to be addressed to Zhu. Fourth, Zhu’s prior official photograph from the early 2000s (though ~20 years younger), matches the facial characteristics of “David He.” Finally, financial documents found in the Reedley Biolab and other financial records show transfer of funds and shipments from Zhu’s IND Group to UMI and Prestige Biotech.
