Another day, another investigation into potential fraud inside a city agency which has led to the termination of another city employee.

This time around, it’s the Department of Employment Services, which has fired interim associate director of unemployment compensation Gaby Fraser amid a D.C. Inspector General investigation into possible fraud.
According to the Washington Times, Fraser — who once ran for advisory neighborhood commissioner in Ward 8, managed Leo Alexander’s campaign for mayor last year, has earned tens of thousands of dollars as a political consultant and is a known Vince Gray booster — was making more than $97,000 at her job at DOES before the agency caught wind of the Inspector General’s overarching investigation into various irregularities. Fraser had been placed on administrative leave on Monday, but was fired shortly thereafter and escorted out of the DOES office by security.
Mayor Vince Gray will certainly be pressed for details on Fraser’s firing during his regularly scheduled press conference this afternoon.
