West Virginia's U.S. Attorneys Create Statewide Fraud Task Force, the Second of Its Kind in the Nation
The U.S. Department of Justice announced on November 10 that West Virginia's two U.S. Attorneys have created a task force to combat fraud. Southern District U.S. Attorney Moore Capito and Northern District U.S. Attorney Matthew Harvey jointly advanced the statewide anti-fraud task force.
The two prosecutors had earlier announced at an elder fraud-prevention event that West Virginia would form its first statewide fraud task force, only the second of its kind in the country, set to launch on November 10. Their offices have also offered investigative resources to state and local law enforcement to help pursue fraud cases.
The effort connects with the Justice Department's National Fraud Enforcement Division, created on April 7 this year to investigate and prosecute fraud against the American public, in support of the White House Task Force to Eliminate Fraud chaired by Vice President Vance.
