A Houston man has been sentenced to more than four years in federal prison for scheming to fraudulently sell 50 million non-existent N95 facemasks to the Australian government, announced U.S. Attorney Jennifer B. Lowery.
Arael Doolittle, 56, pleaded guilty on July 27, 2021. He was sentenced to 54 months in federal prison.
The Australian government was supposed to pay over $317 million for the masks, but authorities disrupted the transaction before it was completed. The two sentences are ordered to be served consecutively, resulting in a total of 108 months in prison.
