BC HUMAN SMUGGLER PLEADS GUILTY

A Vancouver man accused of being involved in an elaborate operation that may have helped smuggle hundreds of Chinese migrants across the Canada-U.S. border by exploiting lax oversight at an international park pleaded guilty to several offences Monday, just before his trial was set to begin.

Michael Kong, 62, wore a red jumpsuit and leg shackles and when B.C. provincial court Judge Patrick Doherty asked whether he was pleading guilty to four of the seven counts of human smuggling of which he’d been accused, he answered, “Yes.”
