Overview
- Pei‑Yun Chung, 34, is being held at Rikers Island’s Rose M. Singer Center on $4,500 cash bail after an alleged $149 theft of services at Mole Mexican Bar & Grill.
- A Brooklyn judge approved a CPL 730 mental‑health evaluation and scheduled a Dec. 17 court date, with Chung waiving her appearance at Wednesday’s proceeding.
- Department of Corrections records list an immigration warrant, and law‑enforcement sources say she overstayed a student visa, creating the possibility of an ICE pickup after criminal proceedings.
- Prosecutors obtained an order of protection for Mole’s manager as restaurateurs report bans and coordinated alerts following repeated nonpayment incidents.
- Court papers and reporting state she owes about $40,000 in back rent to a Williamsburg landlord, identified as Eliot Spitzer, with an early December eviction pending.
