Two former FEMA officials, including
one of the agency's top administrators, were arrested on federal fraud
and bribery charges in connection with their work in Puerto Rico since
Hurricane Maria hit the island in 2017.
The
FBI also arrested the ex-president of Cobra Acquisitions, contracted to
work with federal officials on the restoration of Puerto Rico's power
grid, which sustained widespread damages in the storm.
Ahsha
Tribble and Jovanda Patterson of FEMA, along with then-Cobra president
Donald Keith Ellison, were sent to Puerto Rico as part of the recovery
and restoration of the electric power grid after Maria.
