The Biden administration’s Department of Justice (DOJ) has charged more than 3,400 people with federal crimes and recovered more than $1.4 billion in stolen COVID-19 relief funds during the last three years, according to a newly-published report.
The report, published on April 9 by the DOJ’s COVID-19 Fraud Enforcement Task Force (CFETF), also noted that the force has filed more than 400 civil lawsuits since it was established in 2021, resulting in court judgments and settlements of over $100 million.
