## Summary

A 28-year-old Florida woman has been accused of using her deceased sister’s identity to obtain a public housing voucher for a Miami rental. The case matters because the alleged fraud led to a bill for the landlord and involved a taxpayer-funded rental assistance programme.

Court documents say Shadaryl Eddie presented her sister’s birth certificate and Social Security card to the property owner in March 2025. The landlord later received a demand for $8,357 in allegedly unlawful voucher payments and reported total losses of at least $11,000, including lost rent and eviction costs. Eddie faces charges of criminal use of personal identification and grand theft; she has not entered a plea and was held without bail.
