A member of the Orange County Board of Supervisors has admitted to accepting over $550,000 in bribes as part of a scheme to divert $10 million in COVID-19 relief funds to a charity linked to his daughter, according to California federal prosecutors. In a separate case, two co-owners of a Colorado funeral home, where approximately 190 decaying bodies were discovered, have pleaded guilty to federal fraud charges. These owners are accused of misusing pandemic relief funds while allegedly storing the bodies improperly. Additionally, two former Broward Sheriff’s deputies were convicted of COVID-19 relief fraud, further highlighting ongoing investigations into fraudulent activities related to pandemic assistance programs.
