Xiaoxing Xi may sue the FBI and Justice Department for casting him as a “technological spy” in a faulty 2015 prosecution, an appeals court ruled.
So he was stunned to find a team of FBI agents at his Philadelphia home on an early morning in May that year. They arrested him in his pajamas at gunpoint as his family looked on in alarm.
His lawsuit can now proceed, an appeals court ruled late last month, allowing Xi to continue his longtime quest to tell of his experience in court and join several other researchers of Chinese descent who’ve faced similar accusations. Xi was performing such research as interim head of the physics department at Temple when FBI agents rapped on his door on an early morning in May 2015, his lawsuit reads. Xi said the officers arrived at his home with guns and a battering ram and handcuffed him when he answered the door. After being strip-searched and questioned, he was jailed pending his initial appearance in court.
