That’s a little over 3.2 million a person. Or probably much more likely, a few who took the government for over 50 million, and many more who took it for nearly a million.
If someone can steal $3.2 million from the government, then there’s tens of thousands who are stealing $5,000. And that, folks, is some real money.
Among those charged are 7 in Michigan:
Mashiyat Rashid
Yasser Mozeb
Spilios Pappas
Abdul Haq
Joseph Betro
Tariq Omar
Mohammed Zahoor

Democrats are co-conspirators in importing 3rd Worlders, who are the biggest fraudsters of US benefits and services.
How do you know he’s not going after those you want looked at? He seems to be the sort who eschews the cameras until it’s time to actually announce something - the way it should be instead of spouting off a few times a week about who is/is going to be investigated.
How about that @AGJeffSessons you think you could not recuse yourself over that one?
Drop in the $60 BILLION MEDICARE FRAUD, MEDICAID JUST AS BAD.
Her Thighness comes from the same good ol boy club that @AGJeffSessons comes from.
You do not expect him to take down one of his team members before he tries to fool the rest of the country with a false flag take down.
from the link:
....Among those charged are six Michigan doctors accused of a scheme to prescribe unnecessary opioids. A Florida rehab facility is alleged to have recruited addicts with gift cards and visits to strip clubs, leading to $58 million in false treatments and tests.
Officials said those charged in the schemes include more than 120 people involved in illegally prescribing and distributing narcotic painkillers. Such prescription opioids are behind the deadliest drug overdose epidemic in U.S. history. More than 52,000 Americans died of overdoses in 2015 — a record — and experts believe the numbers have continued to rise.
“In some cases, we had addicts packed into standing-room-only waiting rooms waiting for these prescriptions,” acting FBI director Andrew McCabe said. “They are a death sentence, plain and simple.”
Nearly 300 health care providers are being suspended or banned from participating in federal health care programs, Sessions said.
“They seem oblivious to the disastrous consequences of their greed. Their actions not only enrich themselves, often at the expense of taxpayers, but also feed addictions and cause addictions to start,” Sessions said.
Yeah, 3.5 years left in first term and he has made one, repeat one spit in the ocean bust. I am effin impressed.....NOT.
A school kid with a dart board with all the crimes committed against this nation could do better
Not just Epi Pen, but Diabetic supplies, this new Hep C crap is a big fraud, 12 week treatment can run from $84K-$100K.
My son buys his test meter from Wal-Mart cheaper than ins, along with test strips. While Medicare covered my meter, the test strips are $85 for 100, he pays $22 for 100. I only test once a day, he test 4-5 times, he’s full blown type 2, I have a digestive disorder.
They want every senior to take the expensive blood test, when routine blood work seniors get for kidney/liver would show it up. If you didn’t do dirty needle illegal drugs or were promiscuous with out protection, you are not the target, Hippie generation are.
Sorry, am I supposed to be impressed? Give Rip Van Winkle a pat on the back?
How long was the sting before the net came down? Somehow I doubt just in the last 6 mo.
B$1.3+?! Pocket change. Hillary ‘lost’ $6B, and not a G.Damn thing was done about it.
How ‘bout the EITC/tax frauds (as if the IRS can’t noodle the identity theft)? Disability fraud?? Welfare?
Know the easiest *FIX*?? Get the govt OUT and protect We the People, our Rights, (aka DO YOUR JOB) vs. Socialism of economic slavery (aka welfare)
Because to do it means rolling back everything from the New Deal and everything based on it.
Because that is how long it’s been since the Constitution was controlling what the federal could do rather than it doing what it does because it has gotten away with doing it.
People’s circumstances no matter how dire are not delegations of power for the federal to do something them.
Naturally all this would have been different if people like FDR or even Eisenhower had bothered to work towards amending the Constitution to make any of this lawful (if these powers were so obviously good and necessary it would have been an easy sell, right?), but they didn’t. Arbitrary Government was good enough for them.
NARCAN is what they use for drug overdoses.
At least he and this administration have STARTED the ball rolling. This kind of criminality will take time to uncover and prosecute. Give them a bit of a break, ok? I’m impatient, too, but when you think of all the roadblocks that have been put up to protect these criminals...!
No one did it under obama. Period.
True. But at least they ARE catching some, which is a good thing!
That is something good to know! I hope they prosecute those people who are scamming people in need!
True dat!
Celene Dion has chimed in on the issue
“Maybe those people are so poor, some of the people who do that they’re so poor they’ve never touched anything in their lives. Let them touch those things for once.
As in taxpayer money. OK this was actually her response to the looting during Katrina, but I’m sure she feels the same way about this. Can’t fix Dumb.
In 2005 my husband died of Alzheimers at home. I believe we had Kaiser Permanente at that time. A home hospice nurse visited daily the last week. When I got his death certificates they said he died in hospital or hospice center. I don’t remember which, but definitely not the true answer—at home. I phoned someone official to report the discrepancy as I figured someone was claiming money for the non home care. Don’t know what happened to my report. Who did it? Was it the funeral home which was responsible for providing my death certificates, the hospice nurse who reported to some business????
Yes, I know. Specifically opiates.
Your comment re conflict of interest made me think of the EpiPen corruption story. Sorry, I didn't mean to imply you were actually confused about the two medications.
Yes good job. Americans need to be given their full names. Their ethnic, religious,and political background of those charged and their country or city of origin. I happen to think corruption in America originates more with newcomer and tribal cronyism and race and ethnicity than at random from born in American citizens.
Until we get objective data on this we will not know, just like voter fraud.
