Did you hear about the man, Ronald Evano, that was sentenced last month to more than five years in jail due to his role in a fraud scheme in which he and his wife are said to have intentionally eaten glass fragments in order to collect more than $200,000 in compensation from a multi-state insurance company?

Evano was also ordered to repay as much as $340,000 for his role in defrauding insurers, grocery stores, restaurants, hospitals and doctors in the scheme in which both he and his wife claimed that there was glass in the food that they had eaten.

The couple filed fraudulent insurance claims worth more than $200,000 and incurred more than $100,000 in unpaid medical bills between 1997 and 2005 across several states.

Evano plead guilty to charges in federal court to 20 counts of mail fraud, conspiracy, wire fraud, identity theft, and making false statements on health care matters and social security fraud.

Evano’s wife, Mary, remains a fugitive. An arrest warrant has been issued for Mary Evano listing the same charges that her husband plead guilty to in August.

Evano asked the judge for mercy, saying in court that he and his wife are members of the minority Roma community, and needed the money to pay for dowries and other costs associated with the marriages of his sons under cultural practices.

Psychiatrist Ajit Trikha was looking like the busiest doctor in the world for a while. As it turns out, he wasn’t doing quite as much work as the invoices that he sent to Medicare made it seem.

You see, he finally came clean and plead guilty this past June to defrauding Medicare and Medicaid of approximately 1.85 million dollars. He’d sent in invoices claiming that he worked more than 24 hours a day on 76 different occasions.

One invoice claimed that he’d worked 40 hours in one day. Another said that he’d treated 83 patients in only 2 1/2 hours on another day. Another claim that he’d made stated that he’d treated patients 1,267 times in Belleville, Ill where his office was located, while he was traveling in Europe.

Unless he can stop time or teleport himself there’s no way any of these claims could have been true. If you ask me the doctor wasn’t so wise at all!

On Friday, a Delaware judge ordered a man to wear a T-shirt with the words: “I am a registered sex offender” in bold letters. russell, Teeter, 69, plead guilty to two counts of indecent exposure for twice exposing himself to a 10-year-old girl at his workplace.
Teeter was also was sentenced to 60 days in jail by Superior Court Judge Jan Jurden in Wilmington.

Roberts said he requested the unusual T-shirt punishment because he was concerned about Teeter exposing himself to children at the gardening business he runs with his wife. I think his wife should run her business on her own or else she’s not going to have one once her husband shows up with that T-shirt on.

Teeter had at least 10 prior convictions dating back to 1976 for exposing himself to children and had been diagnosed as a compulsive exhibitionist. Teeter will have to wear the T-shirt at work for 22 months after he gets out of jail. He has 30 days to appeal the sentence.
