Episode 25: An Investigative Journalist’s Insight Into the COVID-19 Fraud Strike Force A journalist and a white-collar criminal defense attorney walk onto a podcast... Though it sounds like the start of a joke, this paired perspective shines new light on the federal government’s ongoing enforcement actions related to COVID stimulus aid fraud. Investigative reporter Brandon Block, who recently wrote an article for Crosscut on this topic, joins podcast host Matt Adams to discuss the investigations of a strike force operating out of a Seattle-area U.S. Attorney’s Office. Their thought-provoking discussion explores regional and national enforcement trends as they speculate on the future of this priority area of aggressive government enforcement activity.
