Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg unveiled on Tuesday the indictment of eight people and six companies in what he called a wide-ranging construction industry fraud scheme.

This announcement comes on the second day of National Construction Safety Week and highlights the plight many construction workers have befallen due to corruption where their well-being is disregarded and compensation for injuries are swept under the rug.

It was this level of disregard for construction workers and an insatiable greed that triggered a red flag for investigators when they noticed suspicious check-cashing activities. According to the Manhattan DA’s Office’s Rackets Bureau, these check-cashing activities were observed during a separate investigation into individuals who received bribes for Minority and Women-Owned Business Enterprises fraud schemes.
