SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A former executive for an Orange County genetics company pleaded guilty today to a federal conspiracy charge for paying kickbacks to physicians.Donald Joseph Matthews, 50, formerly the vice president of market development for Proove Biosciences, admitted in San Diego federal court to paying doctors at least .5 million to order the company's DNA tests for their patients, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.In total, the U.S. Attorney's Office said Proove billed around million to the Medicare program for the tests -- which the company alleged could determine a patient's risk of drug addiction -- and received around million in reimbursements.Prosecutors said the company claimed the payments were compensation for participation in a clinical research program, but the money was actually "directly tied to the volume of tests that a doctor ordered and whether a doctor continued to order more tests from Proove over time.''In his plea agreement, Matthews admitted that without the financial compensation, ``most doctors were not interested in ordering Proove's tests for their patients.''Doctors who complained about not being paid were told to order more tests, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.The company's Irvine headquarters was raided by federal authorities in 2017.``Our nation's healthcare system cannot tolerate kickbacks to physicians while criminals line their pockets with taxpayer-funded healthcare dollars, particularly in light of our nation's current struggles with the COVID- 19 pandemic,'' said Acting Special Agent in Charge Omer Meisel of the FBI's San Diego Division.Matthews is scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 26. He faces a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a 0,000 fine, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office. 1798

SAN DIEGO (CNS and KGTV) - The newly elected San Diego City Council members from districts 2, 4 and 8, as well as re-elected District 6 City Councilman Chris Cate, were sworn in Monday.Outgoing council members Lorie Zapf and David Alvarez gave parting remarks at the ceremony where incoming members Jennifer Campbell, Monica Montgomery and Vivian Moreno were officially welcomed to the 72nd City Council. Outgoing District 4 City Council President Myrtle Cole did not attend.Campbell, a physician and a Democrat who defeated Zapf, a Republican, in District 2 with nearly 58 percent of the vote, compared the job of a council member to her work as a family doctor."Each profession is focused on preventing and solving problems," she said. "In both, we listen to your problem, we learn the history of it, we make a diagnosis and provide a pathway to a cure. And that is how I will serve as District 2's representative in City Hall."Campbell flipping Zapf's seat gives Democrats a 6-3 supermajority on the technically nonpartisan council for at least the next two years."When we work together and we focus less on politics and focus more on the priorities of our communities, there is no challenge too great or obstacle too high that we cannot overcome," Mayor Kevin Faulconer said.Montgomery, a civil rights attorney, ousted Cole in District 4 by painting the incumbent as a City Hall insider out of touch with her own district. Montgomery finished with 57.7 percent of the vote and received the biggest applause, by far, of the four council members taking the oath of office."My prayer is that I never lose sight of the community that sent me to City Hall to do one job, and that is to advocate for you," Montgomery said. "On November 6, 2018, District 4 said `no more' ... No more giving away of our community resources to special interests, no more back-door deals to decide our community's fate, no more supporting leaders who abandon our community and no more leaving out children behind."Montgomery said the City Council can do more to reach its climate action goals, examine police practices, and pursue economic justice. Despite being a Democrat, Cole was Faulconer's closest left-of-center ally on the council over the last two years.“I’m confident that we’re going to work well with all of our colleagues... All of our colleagues,” said Council President Pro-Tem Barbara Bry.Moreno replaced her boss, the termed-out David Alvarez, in District 8. While she is expected by some City Hall observers to tread largely the same path as Alvarez did in his time on the council, her election signifies the first time in city history that a majority of the council members are women."This is an historic day for our city," said Councilwoman Barbara Bry. "We have five women -- five strong women from diverse backgrounds are going to constitute a majority of our San Diego City Council."Moreno finished with 50.9 percent of the vote, 549 votes ahead of San Ysidro school board member Antonio Martinez."People want to know that City Hall is working for them, not for outside interests or those with their own agenda," Moreno said. "They want to know that their elected officials listen to them and do all they can to help. To the communities of District 8, I promise to bring City Hall to you."Campbell, Montgomery and Moreno voted Monday afternoon with the rest of their council colleagues to elect Georgette Gomez as council president. She will set the agenda for future meetings. Bry, Georgette Gomez and Chris Ward are the senior Democrats on the council. City Hall observers portray the vote as coming down to Gomez and Bry, the council's current president pro tem and a possible mayoral candidate in 2020. 3715

SAN DIEGO – Delegates at the California Democratic Party State Convention failed to endorse any candidates for U.S. Senate, governor and attorney general, denying Dianne Feinstein endorsement in her bid to stay seated in the U.S. Senate. The indecision sent shock through the party with 54 percent of the vote going to state Senate leader Kevin de Leon and 37 percent for Feinstein."The outcome of today's endorsement vote is an astounding rejection of politics as usual, and it boosts our campaign's momentum as we all stand shoulder to shoulder against a complacent status quo," de Leon said late Saturday in a prepared statement.Still, Feinstein holds a sizable lead over de Leon in statewide polls.Meanwhile, the gubernatorial vote was split between Lt. Governor Gavin Newsom. State Treasurer John Chiang, former state Superintendent Delaine Eastin and former Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.The convention wraps up Sunday at the San Diego Convention Center with delegates expected to adopt the 2018 party platform. 1039

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A 21-year-old man who used social media to convince a 14-year-old girl to send him sexually explicit photos, telling her to take a "leap of faith" to meet and have sex with him, is facing years in federal prison when he's sentenced in January, the U.S. Attorney's Office announced Monday.Jurors found Isaiah Smallwood-Jackson guilty of production of child pornography and enticement of a minor. The federal convictions reached Thursday-- in a case investigated by the Oceanside Police Department -- trigger mandatory minimum sentences of 15 and ten years, respectively, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.According to evidence presented at trial, Smallwood-Jackson began communicating with the girl using the Spotafriend social media application. He admitted during chats with the victim -- whose profile listed her true age of 14 -- that he was 21 years old and didn't care that she was a minor.Using the internet, Smallwood-Jackson discussed sexual acts he wanted to perform with the girl and convinced her to produce and send him sexually explicit pictures and provide her address, according to Assistant U.S. Attorney Mandy Griffith.The girl repeatedly told Smallwood-Jackson that she was not sure she wanted to meet with him, but he told her to take a "leap of faith." The defendant then traveled to her home, convinced her to come outside, and had sex with her, according to prosecutors.In texts afterward, Smallwood-Jackson apologized for hurting the minor victim. She confided in her sister, who contacted law enforcement."Internet predators beware: the Department of Justice is committed to striking back against repugnant crimes against innocent children," said U.S. Attorney Adam Braverman. "No child should ever have to endure sexual abuse. The United States will utilize every tool available to it to hold these 1855
