Armon A. Hill of Merrillville used a legitimate but inactive corporation to get 840-thousand dollars in Covid relief funds, according to federal prosecutors.

The POST TRIBUNE reports Hill used some of the money for trips to France and Dubai and shopping trips to Gucci and Neiman Marcus.

Prosecutors say Hill pleaded guilty to fraud and on Tuesday was sentenced to 30 months in prison.
