前美联储高级经济学家约翰·哈罗德·罗杰斯因向联邦调查人员作虚假陈述，于2026年7月15日被判处38个月联邦监禁。
Former Federal Reserve Economist John Rogers Sentenced to Prison Following Chinese Espionage Investigation Former senior Federal Reserve economist John Harold Rogers was sentenced to 38 months in federal prison on July 15, 2026, after being convicted of making false statements to federal investigators.
罗杰斯于2025年1月被捕，此前多部门对其与据称是中方情报人员的李涵敏（Hummin Lee）长达十年的关系进行了调查，李曾为罗杰斯的旅行、财务和个人事务提供协助。
Rogers was arrested in January 2025 following a multi-agency probe into his decade-long relationship with Hummin Lee, an alleged Chinese intelligence operative who assisted Rogers with travel, finances, and personal matters.
检方指控罗杰斯泄露了美联储内部敏感的经济材料，而辩方则坚称他是一名不知情的学者，并未传递任何有价值的情报。
Prosecutors alleged Rogers leaked sensitive internal Fed economic materials, while his defense maintained he was an unwitting academic who passed no valuable intelligence.
尽管罗杰斯于2026年2月3日被判经济间谍共谋罪名不成立，但他的定罪及随后的监察长报告揭露了美联储内部存在的重大风险漏洞和数据保护缺陷。
Although acquitted of conspiracy to commit economic espionage on February 3, 2026, his conviction and subsequent Inspector General reports exposed significant insider risk vulnerabilities and data protection deficiencies at the central bank.
