A federal grand jury in Albany has charged three Georgia men in a 51-count indictment that accuses them of participating in fraud and corruption schemes at the Marine Corps Logistic Base in Albany that cost the federal government millions of dollars, the U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Georgia announced today.

The indictment charged Christopher Whitman, 48, a co-owner of Albany trucking company and freight transportation broker United Industrial of Georgia, Inc.; and former company employees Shawn McCarty, 36, of Albany and Bradford Newell, 43, of Sylvester with multiple counts of wire fraud, bribery and theft of government property, according to U.S. Attorney Michael Moore and Mythili Raman, an acting assistant attorney general with the U.S. Justice Department’s criminal division in Washington.
