迈阿密一名联邦法官将美国代表Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick(D-Fla)的传讯延后至2月3日, A federal judge in Miami has delayed the arraignment of U.S. Representative Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick, D-Fla., to February 3, granting her defense team two more weeks to finalize legal representation. 她面临15项联邦指控,包括盗窃政府资金、洗钱和草药捐赠者违规,原因是她家的保健公司Trinity医疗保健服务公司错误地将500万美元的COVID-19大流行病基金保留在用于疫苗登记的疫苗登记基金中。 She faces 15 federal charges, including theft of government funds, money laundering, and straw donor violations, stemming from allegations that her family’s health care company, Trinity Healthcare Services, wrongfully kept $5 million in COVID-19 pandemic funds meant for vaccine registration. 检察官说,10万多美元花在奢侈品上,包括一个3克拉的黄色钻石环,资金被输给捐给她竞选活动的朋友和亲戚。 Prosecutors say over $100,000 was spent on luxury items, including a 3-carat yellow diamond ring, and funds were funneled to friends and relatives who donated to her campaign. Cherfilus-McCormick于2022年1月赢得一次特别选举,他表示不服罪,并因旅行限制而以60 000美元的押金获得释放,但保留了国会护照,以履行公务。 Cherfilus-McCormick, who won a special election in January 2022, has pleaded not guilty and was released on a $60,000 bond with travel restrictions but retains her congressional passport for official duties. 检察官不反对这一拖延。 Prosecutors did not object to the delay.
