The feds have little good to say about Dr. Frank Patino, who is accused of orchestrating a $112 million health care fraud.
In fact, Robert Snell of The Detroit News writes that he's a lying bully who hid millions of dollars in offshore bank accounts while threatening to "break the legs" of one associate and entrapping another with exotic dancers:
Prosecutors, court records and social-media posts portray Dr. Frank Patino as a conniving crook with lies as big as his biceps, an alligator-wrestling, steroid-buying, frequently shirtless fraudster who spent ill-gotten gains on mixed martial arts fighters and a vanity diet program.
More than $2 million remains missing amid a hunt for money stretching from Metro Detroit to the Cayman Islands.
Patino, 63, of Woodhaven, is a central figure in one of the largest health care fraud schemes in U.S. history who was indicted last month amid a broader nationwide crackdown by federal agents.
