Liu's ex-campaign treasurer, Jia "Jenny" Hou, and former Liu fundraiser Xing "Oliver" Wu Pan are facing federal charges of conspiring to break campaign finance laws.
Mr. Liu said he believed in the innocence of Jia "Jenny" Hou, his 26-year-old former campaign treasurer, who was convicted of attempted wire fraud, obstruction of justice and making false statements to federal law-enforcement agents.
On Thursday, Ms. Lee testified for a second day in Manhattan federal court at the trial of Jia "Jenny" Hou, Mr. Liu's former campaign treasurer, and Xing Wu "Oliver" Pan, a longtime campaign contributor.
