Everyone wave bye

Florida Democrat Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick was just INDICTED for STEALING $5M in FEMA Funds and funneled it into her own Campaign, Faces Up to 53 Years in Prison

• She was indicted by a Miami federal grand jury today, alongside her brother Edwin Cherfilus and several co-conspirators, for conspiring to STEAL $5 million in overpaid FEMA funds intended for COVID-19 vaccination staffing through her family's healthcare company, Trinity Health Care Services.

• Prosecutors claim the group laundered the money by routing it through multiple accounts to obscure its origins, then funneled a substantial portion into illegal campaign contributions for her 2021 congressional special election bid—using straw donors like friends and relatives to disguise the source—and for personal enrichment.

• Additional charges include filing a false federal tax return with her 2021 tax preparer.

• If convicted on all counts, including wire fraud, money laundering, and campaign finance violations, Cherfilus-McCormick faces a maximum sentence of 53 years in federal prison
