An Obama-era bureaucrat at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) pleaded guilty on Friday to stealing government software and databases.
Charles K. Edwards schemed to steal confidential information from the government, according to a report from the Justice Department (DOJ). Edwards worked for the DHS from 2008 to 2013. He was the acting Inspector General for the department from 2011 to 2013.
Edwardsâ theft came after his time at the DHS. From 2015 to 2017, he stole software and confidential government data from the DHS for his company Delta Business Solutions Inc. in Maryland. This information helped Edwardsâ company develop a case management system that it could sell to the government.
