A Mississippi woman has been arrested and indicted in a commercial driver’s license fraud scheme.
Tonya Davis, a former CDL tester with the Mississippi Highway Patrol, was arrested April 18. She was indicted earlier in the month in U.S. District Court in Gulfport, Miss., for identity theft, false statements and false entries related to the CDL fraud scheme.
According to the indictment, between September 2017 and January 2018, Davis unlawfully used someone else’s name and testing identification. She also allegedly stated and represented that individuals passed driver skills tests when she knew the tests had not been administered to them.
The U.S. Department of Transportation Office of Inspector General is conducting the investigation with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Mississippi Department of Public Safety, Mississippi Bureau of Investigations and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
