Law360 (May 29, 2020, 6:53 PM EDT) — Over the past few weeks, federal prosecutors have launched a wave of criminal cases accusing people of trying to take advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
\n

On this week’s episode of Pro Say, we’re breaking them all down, including a New Jersey car salesman who sold price-gouged masks and a New York City man who tried to get millions in relief loans.
\n
Each week on\u00a0Pro Say<\/a><\/span>, Law360 staffers Amber McKinney, Bill Donahue and Alex Lawson bring you inside the newsroom and explain what you need to know about key legal developments.

We’ve talked plenty on the show about civil litigation stemming from the pandemic, but the criminal suits are starting to mount as well.\u00a0

Last week, a Georgia man was\u00a0charged with wire fraud<\/span><\/a>\u00a0after allegedly lying to his employer about testing positive for COVID-19, which cost the Fortune 500 company about $100,000 after it needlessly stopped business.

The same day, Manhattan federal prosecutors brought charges against a Chinese national who\u00a0allegedly tried to get hold of<\/span><\/a>\u00a0more than $20 million in government-backed loans that were earmarked for small businesses affected by coronavirus.\u00a0

Then there are the alleged price-gougers: A man\u00a0trying to resell millions of\u00a03M<\/a>\u00a0masks was\u00a0hit with criminal charges<\/span><\/a>\u00a0over the scheme this week while, separately, a former pharmacist who went by the nickname \u00abThe Mask Man\u00bb was charged with buying up thousands of masks and reselling them for as much as $25.\u00a0

Needless to say, it’s just one more legal wrinkle that will be unfolding for years as we move on from the COVID-19 pandemic.\u00a0

Also on this week’s show, we break down a\u00a0big environmental ruling<\/span><\/a> from the Ninth Circuit that could set the stage for a new rush of climate change cases filed in state courts.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
