Physician Charged With Fraud
The D.C. attorney general's office filed an 18-count criminal complaint yesterday against a city-employed physician, charging him with fraud for working for one government agency while simultaneously and secretly earning income from another.
Charles Hall, 64, is accused of cheating the city of more than $12,000 between 2004 and 2006. While working as a full-time medical officer for the Department of Health's Addiction Prevention and Recovery Administration, Hall was secretly earning a paycheck from the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency, the attorney general's office said.
