@americasragingpolitics: 🚨 ILLINOIS LAB OWNER CHARGED IN $66.2 MILLION COVID TESTING FRAUD — 380,000 TESTS ALLEGEDLY NEVER PERFORMED! Federal prosecutors have charged Rajesh “Raj” Patel, 52, of Schaumburg, Illinois, in a massive COVID-19 testing fraud case involving millions in taxpayer money! AND THE NUMBERS ARE STAGGERING! According to the DOJ, Patel allegedly fabricated negative results for at least 380,000 COVID-19 TESTS THAT WERE NEVER ACTUALLY PERFORMED! Investigators allege his laboratory submitted $66.2 MILLION in fraudulent claims to a federal program designed to cover COVID testing for uninsured Americans. Here's the breakdown: 💰 $66.2 MILLION in allegedly fraudulent claims! 💰 $44.1 MILLION actually paid by the federal program! 💰 $28 MILLION allegedly obtained personally by Patel! Prosecutors say some supposed patients never even existed, while others never provided testing samples! Patel now faces FIVE FEDERAL WIRE FRAUD COUNTS, each carrying a maximum sentence of 20 years if convicted. His attorney denies the allegations. Patel is presumed innocent unless proven guilty. 380,000 TESTS, MILLIONS IN TAXPAYER MONEY, AND ONE QUESTION: HOW DID THIS ALLEGED SCHEME GO UNDETECTED FOR SO LONG? #americasragingpolitics #illinois #covid #taxpayermoney #DOJ
