'Sultana' convicted of defrauding IRS
By The Tribune-Review
The self-proclaimed "Sultana" of the United States Moorish American Nation was convicted Thursday in U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh on charges of conspiring with six SCI-Pittsburgh inmates to file phony federal income tax returns.
Edna Gorham-Bey, 58, of Alexandria, Va., and the inmates conspired to make false claims showing that they were owed tax refunds. Gorham-Bey and one of the inmates, George Brooks, had the refunds mailed to a phony address for Brooks that Gorham-Bey controlled, prosecutors said.
Gorham-Bey deposited the checks in a bank account for Children's Hospitality House Inc., an organization she runs in Washington, D.C. Prosecutors said that Gorham-Bey, who had sole authority over the account, then withdrew all the refund money.
