- Oak Lawn methadone clinic owner used millions in Medicaid fraud scheme to buy yacht, cars, jewelry, feds say
Daniel Robinson, owner of an Oak Lawn methadone clinic, is accused of defrauding Illinois Medicaid by submitting over $95 million in false claims for non-existent counseling services, with $7 million of the proceeds spent on luxury items like a yacht named 'Butt Nekkid,' cars, and jewelry. The Justice Department alleges that Robinson's company, ODA Solutions, fabricated medical records and billed for services that were never provided, including to deceased patients.
