A Chinese national in the United States on a student visa was sentenced to three years in prison Tuesday for smuggling counterfeit Apple products from China into the U.S.
周二，一位持学生签证的中国公民因为从中国走私假冒苹果产品进入美国被判处3年有期徒刑。
Jianhua “Jeff” Li, 44, pleaded guilty in the District of New Jersey to one count of conspiracy to traffic in counterfeit goods and labels and smuggle goods into the United States, and one count of trafficking in counterfeit goods, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.
根据美国司法部的说法，44岁的李建华在新泽西州认罪，一项罪名是共谋贩运假冒商品和标签并将商品走私到美国，还有一项罪名是贩卖假冒商品。
Products coming from China included fake iPhones and iPads, according to court documents.
据法庭文件显示，从中国走私进来的产品包括假冒iPhone手机以及iPad平板电脑。
“From July 2009 through February 2014, Li, working through his company Dream Digitals, conspired with Andreina Becerra, Roberto Volpe, Rosario LaMarca and others to smuggle and traffic into the United States from China more than 40,000 electronic devices and accessories, including iPads and iPhones, along with labels and packaging bearing counterfeit Apple trademarks,” the Justice Department wrote in a news release.
司法部在新闻稿中写道：“从2009年7月到2014年2月，李建华通过他的梦想数码公司，跟贝塞拉、沃尔普以及拉玛卡等人合谋，从中国走私进来超过4万件电子产品和配件并贩卖到美国，其中包括iPad平板电脑和iPhone手机，以及带有假冒苹果公司商标的标签和包装。”
Li’s sentence will be followed by a year of supervised release.
李建华刑满释放后还有一年的监外看管。
Li shipped the devices separately from the labels to avoid detection by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials, the release said.
司法部发布的新闻稿称，李建华将这些设备和标签分开运输，以避免被美国海关和边境保护局发现。
“The devices were then shipped to conspirators in the United States. Proceeds were funneled back to conspirator accounts in Florida and New Jersey via structured cash deposits and then a portion was transferred to conspirators in Italy, further disguising the source of the funds. Over $1.1 million in sales proceeds were wired from U.S. accounts into accounts Li controlled overseas,” the release said.
新闻稿称：“这些设备随后被运到美国的同伙手中。销售所得通过结构性现金存款返回到佛罗里达州以及新泽西州的同伙帐户，还有一部分转移到意大利的同伙帐户，以进一步掩盖资金来源。超过110万美元的销售所得从美国汇进了李建华控制的海外账户中。”
LaMarca, Becerra and Volpe previously pleaded guilty to their respective roles in the scheme. LaMarca was sentenced July 21, 2017, to serve 37 months in prison.
拉玛卡、贝塞拉以及沃尔普对他们各自在其中扮演的角色表示认罪。拉玛卡于2017年7月21日被判入狱37个月。
Becerra and Volpe were sentenced Oct. 15, 2018, to serve three years’ probation and 22 months in prison, respectively.
贝塞拉和沃尔普于2018年10月15日分别被判处3年缓刑和22个月监禁。
