Mayor Accused of Misusing COVID Relief Funds | Boston News
Description
A newly re-elected Lawrence mayor is facing federal wire fraud and money laundering charges after allegedly misusing COVID-19 relief funds meant for his tire business. Prosecutors say he diverted $85,000 to personal taxes and $90,000 to his mayoral campaign, then kept funneling EIDL money into his campaign account. A second $1 million loan was also allegedly used for campaign expenses and debt repayment—with over $1.6 million still unpaid. He’s set to appear in court to face these serious allegations.
