A #PuertoRico Senate employee and two contractors were indicted for conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, identity theft, and money laundering.

#ButNothingsHappening
The 3 defendants participated in 2016 Puerto Rico election campaign activities for certain candidates, and after the elections, from 2016 to 2018, they sought out business opportunities with the government.
Two of them created consulting groups to provide administrative & political consulting, as well as government administrative consulting and other related services. Both ended up getting contracts with both the Puerto Rico Senate and House of Representatives.
They ended up billing Puerto Rico for various professional services that they never actually completed. They also fraudulently used other people's identities to make it appear that they used those services.
They used the 3rd defendant, Ángel Figueroa-Cruz,, who was the Executive Director of the Office of Governmental Affairs in the Puerto Rico Senate, to falsely certify their services so that they could be billed.
It seems the US Atty in Puerto Rico means business! They will continue investigating "ghost employees" and the FBI SA in charge said:

"it is now open season on apprehending all those responsible for this corrupt scheme to defraud the People of Puerto Rico."
