As the company's sole owner and billing representative, Luke allegedly misled the VA's third-party administrator when it attempted to recover improper payments - allowing the scheme to continue for years.
Federal prosecutors say a California health care executive, accused of a sweeping fraud that allegedly drained more than $7 million from a program meant to support aging veterans, was arrested at San Francisco International Airport on Wednesday just as he tried to board a flight to Nigeria.
Cashmir Chinedu Luke, believed to be 66 and living in Antioch, now faces a criminal complaint alleging he billed the Department of Veterans Affairs for thousands of home care services that never happened.
Prosecutors say some of the claims even listed care provided to veterans "weeks after they had died."
Luke ran Four Corners Health LLC, a Fresno-based company contracted to provide unskilled in-home assistance to VA beneficiaries across several counties, including San Francisco, Contra Costa, Fresno, Tulare, Merced, Mariposa and Madera.

Between December 2019 and July 2024, investigators say, he submitted about 10,000 false claims through the Veterans Community Care Program.
According to court documents, those claims included "duplicate claims for care actually provided, claims for days caretakers were not present with veterans, claims for hours of care beyond those actually worked by caretakers, and claims of care for veterans who were actually dead."

He decided so immigrate back to Nigeria.
“living in Antioch”
Okay, that right there is prime facie evidence that this fellow wasn’t on the up and up. No one legitimately having $7 million would live in Antioch, CA.
Put him in a cell with Luigi.
Run his head over with a concrete truck loaded with 10 yards of big rock. That’ll teach him and his buddies a lesson.
ha ha ha these criminal Nigerians
The Nigerian prince gave him call!
The prince was in dire need of money.
I assume that 7 million would go a long way in a place like Nigeria... You could live like a king there on that kind of cash.
Who doesn’t want to go to Nigeria this time of year!!-sarc
Monkeys in suits stealing bananas from each other.
Unsuited to high trust civilized society.
None of black Africa or Black run cities/depts work because 80% of them are like this.
Judge them as individuals as Christ compels, but don’t let them in wholesale.
An ugly truth.....but still true.
The white colonialists were right.
White man’s burden.
Let the Vets he screwed deliver justice to this POS, then they can send his remains to Nigeria or a hog farm.
“California man”
Another Alahwahoo Whackbar fraudster, likely funding the war on Christians by donating to Al Shabab.I hope they indict Mr. Luke and roll up his sordid network death cult.
Likely One of Obama's sons, delivering the destruction of America by criminal warfare against Obama's enemy, as defined by nationalist socialist Reverend Ralph Wright. How do you like that hope 'n change?
Did he get his $1,000 self-deport fee too?
America has been berry berry good to me.
Too bad for him that he’s not in Minnesota.
Between December 2019 and July 2024, investigators say, he submitted about 10,000 false claims.
Only took 5 years to find out about it huh.
Yes, Mr. Luke had berry, berry good inside help.
Question: “ Who ran the DFA department during the Biden administration.

Take yer pick.
“Between December 2019 and July 2024, investigators say, he submitted about 10,000 false claims.”
He thieved millions of dollars in Federal money/ California merely administers the payouts. Thus has no incentive to ferret out waste fraud and abuse>>>> “The Federales are paying for it! “This brings millions into the California economy, so let this DEI Nigerian do his thing!”
