Quite a shocking conclusion to the NYT investigation into Shen Yun, the performance troupe of the Falun Gong. Taking a dying woman's credit card and racking up tens of thousands of charges at Hugo Boss, Hermes, Van Cleef & Arpels etc. - by Michael Rothfeld Nicole Hong

Shen Yun has received tens of millions of dollars in ways that may have crossed legal or ethical lines, according to a new investigation by Michael Rothfeld and me. The latest in our Shen Yun series: nytimes.com/2024/12/29/nyr…

Shen Yun and a school that trains its dancers got $16 million from The Epoch Times -- during a period when federal prosecutors said the newspaper's accounts were inflated in a money-laundering scheme

Shen Yun and its satellite orgs got $48 million in government grants -- far more than the intended $10 million limit -- by exploiting a loophole in a pandemic relief program

Three ex-Shen Yun performers said that while they were on tour in Europe, they were directed by Shen Yun staff to carry envelopes stuffed with cash back to the U.S. One person remembered getting $10,000 -- the max you can carry without reporting to customs

As Shen Yun's bookkeeper was dying of cancer, her credit card was used to buy luxury goods from Hermes, Van Cleef, etc. Her family believed the purchases were made for Falun Gong's leader and his wife. The credit card statements showed payments for their cellphone bills
