by R. Cort Kirkwood,The New American:

An Israel-born federal prosecutor has dropped a gun charge against an Israeli citizen in the United States on a nonimmigrant visa and who was linked to an illegal biolab in Las Vegas.

First U.S. Attorney in NevadaSigal Chattah’s office did not tell local media why her office dropped the charge against Israeli Ori Solomon.

For his part, Solomon still faces a state charge of improper disposal of hazardous waste from a biolab in a home for which he was the property manager. That lab, in turn, is linked to a Chinese national, Jia Bei Zhu, now in prison for illegally running a biolab in California. Zhu had close ties to China’s Communist Party.

This is the second case in which an Israeli has escaped justice and in which Chattah was involved. The other involved Israeli cybersecurity official Tom Alexandrovich, who was nailed in a child sex-sting case. He was freed on bond and fled to Israel.

However, he still faces a criminal charge in Clark County for the improper disposal of hazardous waste.https://t.co/C7H5iDinxm

Cops and the FBI raided the biolab in February, and KTNV, the city’s NBC affiliate, citing law enforcement officials,reported in Marchthat samples taken from the lab “are consistent with components used to develop medical diagnostic test kits.” Components recovered included those found in flu vaccines and aging flu samples that were not a public health threat.

Solomon was charged with one count of illegal possession of a firearm and disposing of hazardous waste. But he didn’t have just “a firearm.” He had an arsenal, the federal criminal complaint says, which is illegal for a foreigner.
