FRESNO, Calif. (FOX26) — The CEO of a Fresno-area home health care company is facing federal charges after investigators say he stole millions of dollars meant to care for American veterans.

According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, 66-year-old Cashmir Chinedu Luke was arrested at San Francisco International Airport while trying to board a flight to Nigeria.

Federal prosecutors say Luke ran Four Corners Health LLC, a company that provided in-home, non-medical care for elderly veterans through the Veterans Community Care Program.

The company served veterans in Fresno, Tulare, Merced, Mariposa, Madera, San Francisco and Contra Costa counties.

Investigators say that between December 2019 and July 2024, Luke carried out a massive fraud scheme, billing the Department of Veterans Affairs for services that were never provided.

He don’t sound like a cultured American to me.

You don’t think these Marxists won’t skim some of that wealth they redistribute from the wealthy? Hell yes! They will skim as much as they can get away with!

They couldn’t find some children to steal from (as in the $14 million taken from the Minnesota state program for autistic children, allegedly).

Taking from veterans in California is the next best scam apparently.

Filthy.

May we call you “Cash” as your nickname and the category for what you stole?

Part of the money probably went to fund the muslim f#ckers, boko haram, who’ve killed 50,000 Christians in Nigeria.

The $7 million is what can be proven.
The real number is probably much higher.

We all know of a veteran from Fresno who probably could have used better medical care...

and this joker’s wearing a suit that costs more than my car.
