Democrat Kathy Hochul (shown) received $55,000 in campaign contributions from fraudulent social adult daycare center (SADCs) owners in Flushing, Queens.
Almost 1/2 of her donations are linked to Baoli Zhang, and Jiemin Shang (shown) — who own two of Flushing’s biggest fraudulent daycare businesses (both of which were empty when visited by The NYP).
Zhang, 69, personally donated $10,000, as well as another $5,000 through his Bao Kang Adult Day Care, financial disclosures show. Zhang’s various businesses have extorted some $32 million from Medicaid since 2018, on behalf of tens of thousands of fictitious patients.
Shang runs Livingwell Day Care, which donated $5,000 to Democrat Hochul in 2022, the same year it billed $5.8M to Medicaid. Another $5,000 came from Finest Adult Day Care, which Shang also runs.
