2………….> Hollywood Film Producer Charged With $1.7 Million COVID-Relief Fraud
.
A California man, identified a William Sadleir, 66, of Beverly Hills,  has been charged with allegedly filing bank loan applications fraudulently seeking more than $1.7 million dollars in forgivable Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (SBA) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.

“This defendant allegedly used Paycheck Protection Program loans to pay off his personal credit card debts and other personal expenses, rather than using the funds for legitimate business needs,” said Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division.

“As the department has made clear, those who defraud the PPP to line their own pockets at the expense of the American people will be brought to justice.”

“This film producer allegedly made a series of misrepresentations to a bank and the Small Business Administration to illegally secure taxpayer money that he then used to fund his nearly empty personal bank account,” said U.S. Attorney Nick Hanna of the Central District of California. “The Paycheck Protection Program was implemented to help small businesses stay afloat during the financial crisis, and we will act swiftly against those who abuse the program for their own personal gain.”

“These funds were designed to be a lifeline to businesses struggling to stay afloat during the current crisis,” said Assistant Director in Charge Paul Delacourt of the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office. “The FBI is committed to maintaining the integrity of the PPP and will hold accountable those who cheat the system at the expense of American taxpayers.”

3………….> Free From COVID-19: Americans Hit The Memorial Day Beaches

.

US coronavirus task force chief Dr. Deborah Birx did not mince words, issuing a statement that she was “very concerned” after seeing such scenes:

“We really want to be clear all the time that social distancing is absolutely critical. And if you can’t social distance and you’re outside, you must wear a mask,” she said, as Lyda Krewson, the mayor of St Louis, Missouri, agreed:

“It’s irresponsible and dangerous to engage in such high risk behavior just to have some fun over the extended holiday weekend. Now, these folks will be going home to S. Louis and counties across Missouri and the Midwest, raising concerns about the potential of more positive cases, hospitalizations, and tragically, deaths. Deeply disturbing.”

Regardless of the cautious warning by COVID-19 war experts, millions of Americans have flooded beaches and lakes on Memorial Day weekend, maliciously ignoring restrictions imposed to tackle the coronavirus outbreak, as Florida state police dispersed an unauthorized gathering of hundreds of people in Daytona Beach, and in Missouri, bars at the Lake of the Ozarks were packed with revelers, who violated social-distancing rules.

Vice-President Mike Pence said that some people “would do well to be reminded about the importance of social distancing and the importance of continuing regular hygiene. We have every confidence that as restrictions are loosened in the days ahead, the American people are going to step forward and put this country back to work in a safe and responsible way.”

Memorial Day – an annual holiday held on the last Monday of May – honors all those who have died serving in the US military. It marks the unofficial start of summer.
