American Senior Communities Executives Accused of Fraud

 Millions of taxpayer dollars,  stolen for years. That is what officials say four people, including a former CEO did in Indiana.

We are learning more about the charges James Burkhart, the former CEO of American Senior Communities, is facing.

He and three other ASC executives were arrested Wednesday morning.

Burkhart along with his brother Josh Burkhart, Daniel Benson, and Steven Ganote were all involved in the alleged scheme.

A federal grand jury indictment lays out a massive fraud and kickback scheme allegedly operated the four men, with profits shooting past the $16 million mark.

The high ranking officials are charged with mail fraud, wire fraud, health care fraud, money laundering and conspiracy.

They are accused of conspiring to purchase medical supplies, American flags, landscaping services, t-shirts for alzheimerswalks, but inflated the costs by up to 40% and then spread that money around.

Nothing in the investigation or this prosecution involves resident care.
