U.S. Attorney’s Office Honors over 200 Law Enforcement Officials in Annual Awards Ceremony for Outstanding Efforts in Fighting Crime
LOS ANGELES – United States Attorney Nick Hanna is presenting awards today to more than 200 members of law enforcement agencies for their outstanding work in dozens of cases prosecuted by the United States Attorney’s Office. During the office’s annual Law Enforcement Awards ceremony, officials from federal and local agencies – as well as six Canadian police officers – are being honored for their work in rooting out criminal wrongdoing in Southern California.
“We honor these brave and committed agents, officers and employees of our partner agencies for their tirelessness commitment to maintain public safety and preserve the freedoms all Americans enjoy,” said U.S. Attorney Hanna.
The award recipients are being honored for their contributions towards protecting U.S. national security, responding to the opioid epidemic, combating fraud, fighting public corruption, preventing cyber-crime attacks, and enforcing the nation’s environmental laws.
Those honored included two FBI Special Agents who worked tirelessly to track down witnesses and evidence from two decades ago that helped secure a guilty plea from a gang member who participated in the slaying of an African-American man in Highland Park in 1999. Merced Cambero, who along with fellow gang members shot and killed Kenny Wilson as part of a series of racially motivated crimes, was brought to justice last year after more than a decade as a fugitive. Earlier this year, Cambero pleaded guilty to federal civil rights charges and was sentenced to 20 years in federal prison.
More than a dozen FBI agents, intelligence analysts and specialists received awards for groundbreaking work that culminated in a criminal complaint charging a North Korean computer programmer with being part of a government-backed conspiracy to conduct a series of destructive cyberattacks around the world, including an attack that decimated Sony Pictures Entertainment and others that targeted financial institutions and U.S. defense contractors. The charges were the first ever brought by the U.S. against a North Korean citizen for malicious cyber activity.
A team from the FBI, the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs’ Office of Inspector General, and IRS Criminal Investigation were honored for their work leading to the conviction of David Richard Scott, a parking lot operator who cheated the VA out more than $13 million. Scott received a 70-month prison sentence, was ordered to pay $12.6 million in restitution, and was ordered to forfeit $8 million in assets. The Veterans Affairs’ contracting official who took bribes from Scott for 15 years pleaded guilty and was sentenced to prison in September.
