by Barbara Kram, Editor | December 18, 2007

The Aenlle and Garcia cases were prosecuted by Deputy Chief Kirk Ogrosky from the Criminal Division's Fraud Section in Washington, D.C., and Assistant U.S. Attorney Ryan Stumphauser of the Southern District of Florida. The Seruya, Gourie and Ruiz cases were prosecuted by Deputy Chief Ogrosky, and Trial Attorneys John S. Darden and Hank Bond Walther of the Fraud Section, with the investigative assistance of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General; the FBI; and the Medicaid Fraud Control Unit from the State of Florida. The cases were each brought as part of the Medicare Fraud Strike Force, supervised by the Fraud Section of the Criminal Division and U.S. Attorney Acosta of the Southern District of Florida. Since March 2007, the strike force has indicted approximately 120 defendants in south Florida. Collectively, these defendants billed the Medicare program for over $400 million.
