Fraud scandal of sober life: 6 million US dollars in compensation

Phoenix – Eleven tribal nations and members of the community, which are injured by Arizona's sober, living fraud scandal, will benefit from a new wave of grants.

The general prosecutor's office in Arizona will distribute up to 500,000 US dollars of grants on every recipient via his sober Living Home Support program.

Attorney General Kris Mayes hopes that the grants will reduce the economic loss and support the recovery of tribal members who have fallen victim to the fraudulent activity.

“Although we can never fully compensate for the damage that this fraud caused, we can make sure that justice is served – and that local arizons who have to fight with addiction have a recreation option that you can rely on,” said Mayes in a press release on Thursday.

What was the Sober Living Home fraud scandal in Arizona?

The grants are said to have violated the damage that hundreds of indigenous people caused by fraudsters from the Phoenix region, who were fraudulent, AHCCCs, the state's medical system, were fraudulent.

The first person who was convicted in connection with the fraudulent systems was sentenced to 3½ years in prison in May 2024.

Arial Olivia Dix, 37, helped the establishment of fake treatment centers that cheat the American Indian health program within AHCCCs.

The fraud scandal of Arizona Sober Living Home was widespread. There are many similar cases in which criminals are involved who stole the taxpayer dollar under the guise of helping American doctoral disorders to disrupt substance consumption, according to the authorities.

“While we continue to examine the people and companies and pursue aggressively who have cheated on millions of dollars and exploited these people in need of protection, I am proud to announce the recipients of our new subsidy program for tribal nations and non -profit organizations to provide individuals who are affected by this fraud,” said Mayes.
