The felony charges against Jesus Cardenas and Andrea Cardenas relate to some $176,000 in federal COVID-19 relief funds provided to their political consulting firm Grassroots Resources through the Paycheck Protection Program
District Attorney Summer Stephan filed criminal charges Wednesday against Jesus Cardenas, the former chief of staff to San Diego Councilmember Stephen Whitburn, and his sister, Andrea Cardenas, a sitting member of the Chula Vista City Council. According to prosecutors, both siblings have been charged with multiple felonies related to some $176,000 in federal COVID-19 relief funds provided to Grassroots Resources, the political consulting firm Jesus Cardenas founded.
According to the seven-count complaint filed Wednesday, both Cardenases conspired to defraud the federal government of COVID-19 relief funds made available to private businesses under what was called the Paycheck Protection Program. The charges also accuse the siblings of conspiring with “another person or persons whose identity is unknown” to prosecutors.
