A 66-year-old psychiatrist at the center of a series of federal raids targeting health care fraud flaunted his life of luxury online why allegedly bilking millions of dollars from taxpayers. 

Gladwin Gill, and his wife, Amelou, were both arrested during operation “Never Say Die” for allegedly submitting $5.2 million in fraudulent claims to Medicare for hospice services that were not medically necessary or ever provided, according to authorities. 

On social media, Gill flaunted his high-end lifestyle — posting photos alongside celebrities like Mario Lopez, George Clooney, President George W. Bush and Salt Bae.

In one post, the psychiatrist can be seen posing next to sports agent and philanthropist Leigh Steinberg during a Super Bowl party in 2022, grinning ear to ear on the red carpet. 

Coincidentally, that same year federal authorities were supposedly looking into Gill for alleged health care fraud and even executed a search warrant, according to First Assistant United States Attorney Bill Essayli.

“Nothing happened with these cases,” Essayli said. “Nothing’s happened with fraud under the prior administration, and you’ll have to ask them why, but presumably, it just wasn’t a priority.” 

Multiple comments on social media called out Gill for being a “lowlife,” and even accused the doctor of stealing money.

“Gladwin, I know you went to jail robbing people you robbed me you owe me over $1 million you f—ing piece of s—t. God’s going to punish you f—ing crackhead,” one user wrote. 

Another user said “I put 100% in the shalom hospice care you robbed me you owe me more than $1 million.” 

The Gills were arrested at their multi-million dollar home in Covina, California around 6 a.m. Thursday morning. Law enforcement sawed through the front gate, revealing luxury cars and a home surrounded by palm trees. 

The two allegedly laundered the millions they received from fraudulent Medicare billing and used it to fuel their luxury lifestyle, including mortgage payments, car payments, international flights, restaurants, and personal bills, according to authorities. 

The Gills are expected to make their initial appearance this afternoon in U.S. District Court in downtown Los Angeles.
