美国联邦司法部逮捕了加州两名无家可归非营利组织员工，并追捕第三人，指控他们贪污腐败、挪用数百万美元公共资金1。Home At Last创始人迈克尔·杨被控电汇欺诈，挪用超过750万美元用于开设高端餐厅和夜总会1。洛杉矶特殊服务组织员工拉基亚·马龙被控接受超过18万美元的贿赂和回扣1。The Big Blue Umbrella首席执行官多尼·米切尔被控欺诈性获得120万美元公共补助资金，用于个人开支1。
无家可归欺诈和腐败特别工作组由美国检察官比尔·埃萨利于去年成立1。洛杉矶市长卡伦·巴斯表示："我的政府对欺诈有零容忍政策"1。助理司法部长科林·麦克唐纳表示："我们会追踪每一个从脆弱者手中窃取的欺诈分子"1。与此同时，特朗普政府今年夏天暂停了洛杉矶无家可归机构Lahsa的联邦资金1。本周早些时候，南加州12人因欺诈性领取1000万美元政府托儿补助而被起诉1。
The U.S. Department of Justice has arrested two California non-profit employees working in homelessness services and is pursuing a third, accusing them of embezzling millions in public funds.1 Michael Young, founder of Home At Last, faces wire fraud charges for allegedly misappropriating over $7.5 million to establish high-end restaurants and nightclubs.1 Rakia Malone, an employee at Los Angeles Special Services, has been accused of accepting more than $180,000 in bribes and kickbacks.1 Doni Mitchell, chief executive of The Big Blue Umbrella, is charged with fraudulently obtaining $1.2 million in public grants for personal expenses.1
A special task force dedicated to homelessness fraud and corruption was established last year by U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli.1 Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass responded to the charges by stating, "My government has a zero-tolerance policy for fraud."1 The Trump administration suspended federal funding to Lahsa, a major Los Angeles homelessness agency, in the summer of this year.1 Assistant Attorney General Colin McDonald reinforced the government's enforcement stance, declaring, "We will track down every fraudster who steals from the vulnerable."1 Earlier this week, twelve Southern California residents were charged with fraudulently obtaining $10 million in government child care subsidies.1
