U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia

U.S. Attorney Pirro on the arrest of Jose Ramos:

Taking individuals like Jose Ramos, a fugitive wanted for murder, off our streets is exactly why the D.C. Safe Task Force is working and our nation’s capital is safer under President Trump⚖️🇺🇸

“Richard Cunningham didn’t just defraud lenders, he fabricated federal voucher documents, forged signatures, and invented a veterans housing program that never existed, all to line his own pockets. Exploiting the name and sacrifice of American veterans to commit fraud is particularly offensive, and my office will pursue those abuses with the full weight of federal law.” - U.S. Attorney Pirro

🚨Scam Center Strike Force Results🚨

✅ 1.4 MILLION+ scam accounts disrupted

Scammers stole billions from Americans. We’re fighting back—and pushing these criminal networks off the platforms they rely on. 🇺🇸 - U.S. Attorney Pirro

“This defendant spent years methodically hunting children online. He targeted more than 145 victims, some as young as six, and subjected them to horrors no child should ever experience.

This dirtbag learned a hard truth: if you exploit children, we will hunt you down, drag you into an American courtroom, and make sure you spend years behind bars.“ - U.S. Attorney Pirro on Ramanan Pathmanathan

“Javan King’s theft of thousands of government phones was a brazen betrayal of the public trust that drained taxpayers of more than a million dollars. He then squandered the stolen money on gambling, luxury vacations, and a high‑end vehicle. He will now be required to repay the very funds he siphoned from the American taxpayer and serve a prison sentence for his crimes.” - U.S. Attorney Pirro

🚨Unmarked Room Update from U.S. Attorney Pirro🚨

“Before I took office, government-purchased computers, microwaves, lamps, and other equipment were left forgotten in a basement collecting dust. That ends now.

My office will either sell these items or donate them so they can actually be used — because taxpayer dollars should never go to waste.“
