Man sent to prison for selling knock-off condoms
Jian Wang had pleaded guilty to trafficking in counterfeit goods after the fake Trojan condoms were seized along with other brand-name knockoffs from a storage unit in Hicksville.
Prosecutors alleged the knock-off condoms were tested and found to be defective.
Judge Brian Cogan said during sentencing last week that the 44-year-old Wang had put people at risk.
Wang's lawyer, Glenn Obedin, had asked that his client not receive prison time because his crime was nonviolent.
Prosecutors say Wang was a member of a six-person ring who trafficked in a variety of fake brand-name goods made in China.
