Charmaine Gatlin, the former COO of Jackson Health Foundation, is accused of embezzling over $1 million through a kickback scheme. She faces charges including conspiracy to commit wire fraud and money laundering. Gatlin allegedly signed off on $3.6 million in false invoices from contractors while using the stolen funds for luxury purchases, including high-end designer items and a customized golf cart. Bradenton federal court has set her bond at $30,000, with conditions imposed to limit her contact with unidentified co-conspirators. The upcoming arraignment will further address these serious allegations.
Gatlin is accused of directing an almost decade-long kickback scheme in which she pocketed more than $1 million from purported Jackson Health Foundation contractors.
The indictment charges her with a single count of conspiring with other individuals to commit wire fraud, 26 counts of wire fraud and five counts of money laundering.
