<p>All three were set to stand trial Tuesday. Instead, engineer Chi Mak’s brother Tai Mak pleaded guilty Monday to conspiring to export control laws; Tai Mak’s wife, *** Li, pleaded guilty Monday to aiding and abetting the violation of export control laws; and the couple’s son, Yui “Billy” Mak, pleaded guilty last week to aiding and abetting the violation of export control laws....
