Attorney General Pam Bondi’s Department of Justice has dropped fraud charges against a former Republican lawmaker being represented by her brother, Brad Bondi.
Former Florida House Rep. Carolina Amesty was facing up to 20 years in prison for two counts of theft of government property related to COVID-19 relief funds, ABC News reported.
The charges were filed under the Biden administration’s Justice Department in a criminal complaint in mid-January. However, Brad, of counsel at the global Paul Hastings law firm, claimed in a Wednesday court filing that the investigation has been dropped.
