WASHINGTON, April 2 (UPI) -- New federal charges were brought in Washington Friday against the founder and treasurer of the National Association of Special Police and Security Officers.

The superseding indictment charges Caleb Gray-Burriss, 60, of Washington with mail fraud, theft from a labor organization, obstruction of justice, criminal contempt and various recordkeeping offenses related to his operation of a pension plan for the union's members, the Justice Department said in a release.


NASPSO represents private security guards assigned to protect federal buildings in the Washington metro area.

Gray-Burriss, who originally was charged last June with four counts of mail fraud, will be arraigned on the new counts Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Washington.

Gray-Burriss is accused of spending more than $100,000 in union pension funds on himself or others.
