As part of a coordinated, nationwide takedown the sixth that the Medicare Fraud Strike Force and its partners have conducted this afternoon, we announce charges against 89 defendants in eight different cities for their alleged participation in fraud schemes to submit more than $220 million in false billings to Medicare. These defendants are accused of a variety of crimes involving the fraudulent use of Medicare information obtained illegally from elderly or low-income individuals; the submission of false billings for treatments that were never provided, or were performed by unlicensed individuals; and a range of other schemes that placed the safety of innocent people at risk in order to achieve illicit financial gain.

Would people rather have 220 million or the criminals on Wall Street prosecuted for what they did?

I got no use for either one. AG is a spot for the corrupt, authoritarians, and corporate lackeys
