28 Former Federal Official Pleads Guilty to Embezzling Taxpayer Money SAN FRANCISCO A former federal official, Daniel Voll, pleaded guilty in federal court in San Francisco today to embezzling taxpayer money, United States Attorney Joseph P. Russoniello announced. In pleading guilty, Voll admitted to having engaged in a scheme dating back to 2005 whereby he defrauded the United States government of tens of thousands of dollars. During the time of his criminal conduct, which spanned four years, Voll was employed by General Services Administration Public Building Service as a senior official, having served as Deputy Regional Commissioner for that federal agency s Western Region (encompassing California, Nevada, Arizona, Hawaii, Guam and America Samoa). According to the plea agreement, Voll incurred expenses of a purely personal nature on his government issued credit card at various luxury hotels, dining, and spa establishments across the Bay Area, and then falsely represented that these were legitimate business expenses of the United States government. The United States government did in fact pay for these expenses. The investigation began when federal agents received notification of questionable transactions on Voll s government issued credit card. Voll, 66 of Orinda, Calif. was charged by the United States Attorney in a Criminal Information on March 15, 2010, with embezzlement of public money in violation of 18 United States Code Section 641. Voll pled guilty to that charge and has agreed to pay restitution to the government. The sentencing of Voll is scheduled for July 8 at 2:30 p.m. before U.S. District Court Judge Jeffrey White in San Francisco. The maximum statutory penalty for the count in violation of embezzlement of public money in violation of 18 United States Code Section 641 is 10 years imprisonment and a fine of $250,000, plus restitution. However, any sentence following conviction would be imposed by the court after consideration of the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and the federal statute governing the imposition of a sentence, 18 U.S.C FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 1,
29 Former GSA Official Sentenced in Embezzlement Scheme On August 13, 2009, Michael T. Harrington, former Supervisory Accountant, GSA, was sentenced in U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri, to thirty seven (37) months incarceration for one count each of violating: Theft of Government Funds/Embezzlement, Money Laundering, with the sentences to run concurrently, plus $593, restitution, three (3) years supervised release and a $200 special assessment. Harrington declined a formal plea agreement with the stipulation that the government dismiss two additional counts of Money Laundering. Investigators in GSA OIG s Mid West regional Office were contacted by representatives of IRS Criminal Investigations, who found that Harrington had deposited high dollar U.S. Treasury Checks made payable to MWR FUND into a bank account, and subsequently made overpayments on his bank credit cards. A search of GSA records showed that from May 2006 through May 2008 thirteen payments totaling $593, had been paid to MWR FUND from the GSA. The investigation revealed that in April 2006 Harrington started the fictitious company called MWR FUND and acquired a post office box and bank account for the same. Harrington then used his position as a GSA Supervisory Accountant to create, sign and submit thirteen fraudulent vouchers causing U.S. Treasury checks to be dispensed to his fictitious company. 29
