SF deputy pleads not guilty to federal charges in alleged fraud scheme
A San Francisco sheriff’s deputy was arraigned in federal court Wednesday in connection with an alleged scheme to falsely a claim that her gun was stolen and passed to a former jail inmate with whom she was involved.
April Myres, who was arrested in February, pleaded not guilty Wednesday in U.S. District Court in San Francisco to charges of mail fraud, wire fraud and failing to report a felony following the filing of a federal grand jury indictment on Tuesday.
She faces charges along with Antoine Fowler, a former San Francisco jail inmate. Fowler is charged on the same indictment with one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm.
Federal prosecutors allege that Myres, who has worked for the Sheriff’s Department since 1996, faked a burglary at her home in San Francisco on March 25, 2016.
