Gerard C. Moorer, 42, of Chicago, is accused of engaging in fraud related to the Pandemic Unemployment Assistance program, fraudulently applying for PUA benefits in May 2020 and claiming that he had met Covid-19 related reasons for being unemployed, partially unemployed or unable to work. He continued to submit fraudulent certifications of his unemployment for 16 months — reaping 31,887 in benefits, the indictment alleges.

Moorer has served as deputy district director for Davis since August 2013.
