As an Inspection Service employee, she swore to protect the Postal Service. She held a high security clearance since she started the job in 2020 and was responsible for running background checks for the agency.
More importantly, she held a position of trust not just as a public servant, but as a law enforcement official for an agency involved in — get this — pandemic relief fraud investigations. Yet, like other fraudsters, she chose to exploit an unprecedented situation for personal gain.
Our special agents found the employee lied three times when applying for SBA loans: First, she applied for an Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) loan intended to keep small businesses afloat when they couldn’t operate fully or at all. Asking for almost $60,000, she made up a business out of thin air and claimed it had grossed over $145,600 in revenue the year before she applied.
