Alan Dershowitz claims crucial Epstein files are suppressed, hinting at a “sky high” scandal.
Sharma, former CEO of Sovereign Health Group, was arrested on May 29, 2025, culminating an eight-year federal probe. He faces an indictment for allegedly orchestrating a scheme to defraud insurers of over $149 million and paying $21 million in illegal kickbacks.
The multi-year operation (2014-2020) allegedly involved submitting fraudulent claims, including over $29 million for unauthorized urinalysis tests from Sovereign’s in-house lab. Sharma, along with cash manager Paul Jin Sen Khor, is accused of using a “sham foundation” to obtain patient data for fraudulent insurance applications and disguising kickbacks to patient brokers as “marketing hours.” If convicted, Sharma faces decades in prison.
This indictment follows years of trouble for Sharma. His UK medical license was revoked in 2008 for dishonesty. Despite this, he became Sovereign’s CEO in California. In 2022, a jury ordered Sharma and Sovereign to pay Health Net $45 million in a civil RICO case, finding they acted with “malice, oppression, or fraud.” Sovereign also settled an $11 million wrongful death lawsuit. The federal investigation involved multiple agencies, highlighting severe allegations of exploitation in addiction treatment.
Years after his death, the shadow of Jeffrey Epstein’s predatory network persists, fueled by recent revelations. Attorney General Pamela Bondi’s claim that the FBI is reviewing “tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn” involving “hundreds of victims” dramatically raises the stakes. This potential trove of evidence hints at an industrial scale of exploitation, placing immense pressure on the FBI for transparent and diligent review. The ongoing saga highlights the deep-seated challenges of uncovering the full truth and achieving accountability for a criminal enterprise enabled by wealth and power.
