The man who recently caught police attention for allegedly abusing his 21 children in the U.S. previously served as a high-level Chinese government official for at least two decades in the region at the heart of the communist nation’s ongoing genocide, according to a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation.
In May 2025, police in Arcadia, California, arrested Xuan Guojun, 65, and his wife, Silvia Zhang, 38, for child endangerment after their two-month infant was brought to a hospital suffering from a traumatic head injury, The Associated Press reported. Police reviewed security footage from the couple’s $4 million, 10,000 square-foot mansion and allegedly discovered that their nanny, Li Chunmei, 56, had verbally and physically abused their 21 children, 17 of whom are toddlers, the New York Post reported.
Xuan and Zhang have not been charged, Arcadia police told the DCNF, but authorities removed the children from their custody and are now working with the FBI to investigate the couple and their former company, Mark Surrogacy Investments LLC, which allegedly failed to disclose that surrogates were carrying the couple’s embryos, according to the New York Post.
