Defendant Collected More Than $400,000 Meant for Individuals And Families in Need of Temporary Assistance

WASHINGTON – Gary T. Holliday, 50, a former training supervisor and policy analyst for the District of Columbia Department of Human Services (DHS), was sentenced today to 18 months in prison for his involvement in a scheme in which he defrauded the agency of more than $400,000 in temporary assistance benefits meant for needy District residents.

The announcement was made by U.S. Attorney Jessie K. Liu, Charles A. Dayoub, Acting Special Agent in Charge, Criminal Division, FBI Washington Field Office, District of Columbia Inspector General Daniel W. Lucas, and Special Agent in Charge Maureen R. Dixon of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG), for the region that includes Washington, D.C.

Holiday, of Fort Washington, Maryland, pled guilty in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia in February 2019. He was sentenced by the Honorable Rudolph Contreras. The judge also ordered Holliday to pay $404,800.31 in restitution and in forfeiture. Upon completion of his prison term, Holliday will be placed on two years of supervised release.

According to plea documents, Holliday embezzled money intended to provide temporary support and assistance to low-income families and individuals. Specifically, he targeted the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as the food stamps program, and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), which consists of cash benefits. Benefits in both programs were provided to clients via electronic benefit cards.
