According to a criminal complaint filed with the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California on Tuesday, Sun served as campaign manager for a Southern California politician who was not named and only identified as "Individual 1" in the complaint. Individual 1 was ultimately elected to a city council position in a city not named in the complaint, in 2022. Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
