Summary

A superseding indictment returned by the Special April 2021 Grand Jury against Robert Carter and Sirreginald McGuire, No. 21 CR 50024, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Western Division, charging violations of Title 18, United States Code, Sections 1957, 1343, 1341 and 1028A(a)(1). It alleges that from about June 2020 to March 2021 the defendants submitted fraudulent Pandemic Unemployment Assistance claims to agencies in California, Maryland and Virginia using their own and others' identities, resulting in more than $1,000,000 in benefits paid on debit cards mailed to residences tied to the scheme. Count One charges mail fraud over a debit card mailed on or about June 26, 2020, and later counts charge wire fraud and aggravated identity theft. The forfeiture allegations list watches including a Cartier Santos de Cartier watch.

      The SPECIAL APRIL 2021 GRAND JURY charges:

      1.     At times material to this superseding indictment:

             a.    The Social Security Act established the dual program of federal

and state unemployment benefits. Under the Act, each state administered its own

unemployment program through their State Workforce Agency, within the guidelines

of federal law.

             b.    State unemployment benefits were financed in part by state

payroll taxes, which were held in trust by the United States Department of Treasury’s

Unemployment Trust Fund.

             c.    The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES

Act”) expanded states’ ability to provide unemployment insurance for many workers

impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, including workers who were not ordinarily

eligible for unemployment benefits.     One such program, the Federal Pandemic

Unemployment Compensation Program (“FPUC Program”), allowed eligible

individuals who were collecting certain unemployment benefits, including regular

                                         1
unemployment compensation, to receive an additional $600 in federal benefits per

week for weeks of unemployment ending on or before July 31, 2020.

             d.     The   Pandemic      Emergency   Unemployment      Compensation

(“PEUC”) Program allowed those who had exhausted benefits under regular

unemployment compensation or other programs to receive up to 13 weeks of

additional federally funded benefits.

             e.     The Pandemic Unemployment Assistance (“PUA”) Program

allowed individuals who do not qualify for regular unemployment compensation and

were unable to continue working as a result of COVID-19, such as self-employed

workers and independent contractors, to file for unemployment benefits.         PUA

provided up to 39 weeks of benefits to qualifying individuals who were otherwise able

to work and available for work within the meaning of applicable state law, except

that they were unemployed, partially unemployed, or unable or unavailable to work

due to COVID-19 related reasons, as defined in the CARES Act. Unemployment

benefit payments under PUA were retroactive for weeks of unemployment, partial

employment, or inability to work due to COVID-19 reasons starting on or after

January 27, 2020.

             f.     Residents of California, Maryland and Virginia, or individuals

who resided in another state but worked primarily in California, Maryland, or

Virginia respectively, and who became unemployed through no fault of their own, had

the option of initiating their unemployment claim electronically via the website for


                                          2
the California Employment Development Department, the Maryland Division of

Unemployment Insurance or the Virginia Employment Commission respectively.

               g.       Unemployment insurance claims filed electronically with the

California Employment Development Department were processed by a server located

in California.        For approved claims, the California Employment Development

Department paid the benefits via debit card issued by Bank of America. The debit

cards were mailed to the claimant’s mailing address via United States mail. All

transactions involving a Bank of America debit card issued on behalf of the California

Employment Development Department were processed through servers in Colorado.

               h.       Unemployment insurance claims filed electronically with the

Maryland Division of Unemployment Insurance were processed by a server located

in Virginia.        For approved claims, the claimant had the option of receiving the

benefits through either a direct deposit into a bank account or requesting the benefits

be loaded onto a debit card that was mailed to the claimant’s address via United

States mail.        Maryland Division of Unemployment Insurance debit cards were

issued by Bank of America and all transactions involving the Bank of America debit

card were processed through servers in Colorado.

               i.       Unemployment insurance claims filed electronically with the

Virginia Employment Commission were processed by a server located in Virginia. For

approved claims, the claimant had the option of receiving the benefits through either

a direct deposit into a bank account or requesting the Virginia Employment


                                             3
Commission send a debit card to the claimant’s address via United States mail.

      2.        Beginning in or about June 2020, and continuing to in or about March

2021, in Homewood and DeKalb, in the Northern District of Illinois, and elsewhere,

                                ROBERT CARTER and
                              SIRREGINALD MCGUIRE,

defendants herein, and others known and unknown to the grand jury, knowingly

devised, intended to devise, and participated in a scheme to defraud the California

Employment Development Department, the Maryland Division of Unemployment

Insurance, and the Virginia Employment Commission and to obtain money and

property by means of materially false and fraudulent pretenses, representations, and

promises, which scheme is more fully set out below.

      3.        It was a part of the scheme that defendants CARTER and MCGUIRE

and others involved in the scheme electronically submitted fraudulent PUA

unemployment insurance claims to the California Employment Development

Department, the Maryland Division of Unemployment Insurance, and the Virginia

Employment Commission, resulting in more than $1,000,000 in unemployment

benefits for claimants who, as defendants knew, were not entitled to unemployment

benefits from the California Employment Development Department, the Maryland

Division of Unemployment Insurance, and the Virginia Employment Commission

respectively.

      4.        It was further part of the scheme that defendants CARTER and

MCGUIRE and others involved in the scheme used their own names, dates of birth,

                                           4
and social security numbers, and used the names, dates of birth, and social security

numbers of others, in electronically filing fraudulent PUA unemployment insurance

claims with the California Employment Development Department, the Maryland

Division of Unemployment Insurance, and the Virginia Employment Commission for

claimants who, as defendants knew, did not work or live in California, Maryland and

Virginia respectively.

        5.   It was further part of the scheme that defendants CARTER and

MCGUIRE and others involved in the scheme opted to have the fraudulent

unemployment benefits paid via debit cards that were mailed to residences connected

to defendants and others involved in the scheme, including residences in Homewood

and DeKalb, Illinois, and Hampton, Georgia.

        6.   It was further part of the scheme that defendants CARTER and

MCGUIRE obtained the debit cards containing unemployment benefits in the names

of claimants who were not entitled to unemployment benefits from the California

Employment Development Department, the Maryland Division of Unemployment

Insurance, and the Virginia Employment Commission and withdrew funds from the

debit cards at financial institutions and automated teller machines located in Illinois.

        7.   It was further part of the scheme that defendants CARTER and

MCGUIRE misrepresented, concealed, and hid, and caused to be misrepresented,

concealed, and hidden acts done in furtherance of the scheme and the purpose of those

acts.
