A former U.S. sailor and two former Marines, who were all stationed in San Diego, have pleaded guilty to their role in a $65 million Tricare fraud, federal authorities announced this week.
Kyle Adams, the sailor, and Daniel Castro and Jeremy Syto all pleaded guilty June 24 for their role in the cross-country scam, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of California.
The plot involved Adams, Castro and Syto recruiting Tricare patients on behalf of the alleged ringleader of the plot to “receive extraordinarily expensive and largely unnecessary prescription compounded drugs,†according to the U.S. attorney’s office.
