More than a year after leaders of Florida’s largest homeowners association, which is located in Kendall, were charged in a money-laundering scheme, another arrest was announced Friday in the ongoing fraud saga.

Kevin Leonardo Alzate, 32, was charged with perjury by contradictory statements, fabricating physical evidence and resisting an officer without violence. He was booked into the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on Friday and still remains there.

“I am thoroughly elated. This is what I would consider a early holiday gift for the residents of the Hammocks who have been tortured and brutalized for the last seven years,” said Don Kearns, a 29-year resident who is president of the Hammocks Community Association’s Advisory Board of Directors.

According to the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office, Alzate played an integral role in a plot to steal $2 million from the Hammock’s HOA bank accounts over several years.
