BREAKING: A $1.2 billion Medicare FRAUDSTER who fled to the Philippines after skipping out on his sentencing hearing has been CAPTURED! Herbert Leon Kimble evaded authorities for almost two years, but now he is in U.S. custody!

The Philippines’ Bureau of Immigration arrested Kimble after he appeared on the FBI’s new “Most Wanted Fraudsters” list and turned him over to U.S. authorities.

The New York Post is reporting, “Prosecutors said Kimble operated a healthcare fraud scheme that generated more than $1.2 billion in Medicare charges and affected thousands of beneficiaries, many of them elderly.”

The National Fraud Enforcement Division was created by the Justice Department to support 47’s Task Force to Eliminate Fraud, according to the report.
