A Cedar Hills, Utah,<\/a> man who falsely claimed to be a doctor and was indicted in 2020 for crimes associated with the selling of an unproven solution that could prevent and treat coronavirus, is behind bars after a three-year fugitive hunt.<\/p>\n

U.S. Attorney Trina A. Higgins of the District of Utah announced on Monday that 63-year-old Gordon Hunter Pederson had been taken into custody after he was spotted by federal agents conducting surveillance on July 5, 2023.<\/p>\n

Pedersen was wanted after failing to appear in federal court<\/a> on Aug. 25, 2020 for an indictment charging him with mail fraud, wire fraud and felony introduction of misbranded drugs into interstate commerce with intent to defraud and mislead.<\/p>\n

UTAH BUSINESS OWNER ALLEGEDLY PUSHED SILVER PRODUCTS, FALSELY CLAIMING THEY PREVENT, TREAT CORONAVIRUS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Court documents allege that before approved COVID-19 vaccines<\/a> were available, Pedersen was using the internet to sell a “structural alkaline silver” product he claimed “resonates, or vibrates, at a frequency that destroys the membrane of the virus, making the virus incapable of attaching to any healthy cell, or to infect you in any way.”<\/p>\n

Higgins said the suspect also falsely claimed on YouTube videos to be a board certified “Anti-Aging Medical Doctor,” while also falsely claiming to have PhDs in immunology and naturopathic medicine.<\/p>\n

NEW COVID SUBVARIANT, ERIS, IS NOW MOST COMMON AND FASTEST-SPREADING IN US: \u2018NEVER GOING AWAY\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

A company Pedersen previously owned, My Doctor Suggests LLC, was alleged to have operated without registering with the Food and Drug Administration.<\/p>\n

The company agreed to plead guilty to one count of criminal information related to its false and misleading marketing of ingestible silver products to treat COVID-19.<\/p>\n

Along with the guilty plea, the company severed ties with Pedersen and agreed to corporate in his prosecution, the U.S. Attorney\u2019s Office<\/a> said at the time of the agreement.<\/p>\n

Pedersen is expected to make his initial appearance on the indictment on Tuesday. With the indictment appearance, Pedersen is also scheduled to have a detention hearing. Both hearings will take place at the Orrin G. Hatch U.S. District Courthouse in Salt Lake City.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
