dbpedia-owl:abstract	Wayne Hsiung (born June 18, 1981) is an American attorney and activist. Hsiung is a co-founder of the animal rights network Direct Action Everywhere (DxE). Prior to founding DxE, Wayne was a lawyer with the law firms DLA Piper and Steptoe & Johnson, a Searle Fellow and visiting assistant professor at the Northwestern University School of Law, and a National Science Foundation-funded graduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Due to his activism, trespassing on factory farms to investigate animal cruelty and rescue individual animals, he has been found guilty of two felonies; in other jurisdictions he is facing charges of up to 60 years in prison. In the most serious case, Hsiung was offered resolution that involved no prison time, on the condition that he refrain from criticizing the company he had investigated, Smithfield Foods; he and co-defendant Paul Picklesimer refused the offer and were acquitted after trial in October 2022. Hsiung ran for mayor of Berkeley, California, in 2020, largely focused on the issue of animal rights, and earned 24% of the vote, defeated by incumbent Jesse Arreguin.
