密苏里州Kansas City十一名居民被起诉合谋骗取逾40万美元PPP贷款：主犯为他人伪造国税局表格申请贷款
美国司法部密苏里西区联邦检察官办公室宣布，Kansas City都会区十一名居民被联邦大陪审团起诉，指控他们合谋骗取《冠状病毒援助、救济与经济安全法》（CARES Act）下逾40万美元的薪资保护计划（PPP）贷款。共21项罪名的起诉书于10月28日由Kansas City的联邦大陪审团作出。
被起诉的十一人为：Gerri Jackman（54岁）、Gabriel Briones（32岁）、Michael Davis（31岁）、Christopher Jackman（37岁）、John Jackman（35岁）、Antonio O’Field（35岁）、Rahonda Pitts（46岁）、Adrian Smith（又名Adrian Truth，39岁）、Ayshawn Smith（39岁）、Flora Stevenson（50岁）与Victoria Townsend（33岁）。
起诉书指控，Gerri Jackman为其他同案人准备并提交虚假的PPP贷款申请，并从贷款收益中收取每笔约2,000美元的协助费用。她为不存在的企业伪造国税局（IRS）表格，并为真实企业虚增收入，以使借款人够格获得贷款。
除一名借款人外，其余借款人各获得两笔20,833美元的PPP贷款。Gerri Jackman除合谋指控外，还被控20项电信诈骗罪；其余被告各被控在其中两项电信诈骗中协助与教唆。
起诉书还包含没收指控：若罪名成立，每名被告须向政府没收由涉案行为取得的财产，包括每人41,666美元的金钱判决。
检方强调，起诉书中的指控仅为指控，并非有罪证据，被告在法庭被证明有罪之前均推定无罪。此案由国税局刑事调查局（IRS-CI）调查，助理联邦检察官Paul S. Becker负责起诉。
Eleven Kansas City-Area Residents Indicted for $400,000 Covid Fraud Conspiracy Involving Fraudulent PPP Loans
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Western District of Missouri announced that eleven Kansas City metropolitan residents have been indicted for their roles in a conspiracy that resulted in over $400,000 in fraudulent Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans being issued under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. The 21-count indictment was returned by a federal grand jury in Kansas City on October 28, 2026.
The eleven defendants are Gerri Jackman, 54; Gabriel Briones, 32; Michael Davis, 31; Christopher Jackman, 37; John Jackman, 35; Antonio O'Field, 35; Rahonda Pitts, 46; Adrian Smith, also known as Adrian Truth, 39; Ayshawn Smith, 39; Flora Stevenson, 50; and Victoria Townsend, 33.
According to the indictment, Gerri Jackman prepared and filed fraudulent PPP loan applications on behalf of the other co-conspirators, and received payments of approximately $2,000 from the loan proceeds for her assistance. She created fraudulent IRS forms for nonexistent businesses, the indictment says, and inflated income for existing businesses in order to qualify the borrowers for PPP loans.
All but one of the borrowers received two PPP loans of $20,833. In addition to the conspiracy, Gerri Jackman is charged with 20 counts of wire fraud, and each of the remaining defendants is also charged with aiding and abetting her in two of those wire fraud counts for the fraudulent loans they received.
The indictment also contains a forfeiture allegation, which would require each defendant to forfeit to the government any property obtained from the proceeds of the alleged offenses, including a money judgment of $41,666 for each defendant.
The charges contained in the indictment are simply accusations, and not evidence of guilt. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Paul S. Becker and was investigated by IRS Criminal Investigation.
