Another roughly 28 individuals were directly recruited by Morgan \u2014 who was a sergeant in Marine Aviation Logistics Squadron 11, based at Miramar Air Station, California, the documents show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt took very little work to sign people up to receive free money,\u201d Morgan said, according to a sentencing court document, in which he also described himself as having been at the bottom of the Marine pay scale, with a large car payment, and badly in need of extra funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Morgan netted at least $2.6 million in illegal kickbacks while Adams took home at least $1 million, according to the court documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With his cut of the proceeds, Morgan lavishly spent his funds on nightclubs and top-shelf alcohol, the sentencing document continues. He also bought two luxury cars, which were seized by the government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fellow recruiter Adams ultimately conceded he \u201cturned a blind eye\u201d to the illegality of the scheme, contending that with the influx of so much money \u201che was not thinking clearly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The pair worked for Jimmy and Ashley Collins, a married couple in Tennessee, who the Justice Department said quarterbacked the scheme. In addition to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/usao-sdca\/pr\/husband-and-wife-sentenced-65-million-tricare-fraud\" target=\"_blank\">the millions they were ordered to pay in restitution<\/a>, Jimmy received a 10-year prison sentence while his wife earned 18 months in home confinement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Authorities seized numerous items and properties purchased by the husband-and-wife team, and by others, with the proceeds of the fraud. That included an 82-foot yacht; luxury vehicles like Aston Martins; gold and silver bars; and three pieces of Tennessee real estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Other patient recruiters were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/usao-sdca\/pr\/two-former-us-marines-and-nurse-practitioner-sentenced-65-million-tricare-fraud\" target=\"_blank\">previously sentenced to custody<\/a>, the release said, as were <a href=\"https:\/\/www.justice.gov\/usao-sdca\/pr\/tennessee-doctors-sentenced-65-million-tricare-fraud#:~:text=SAN%20DIEGO%20%E2%80%93%20Two%20doctors%2C%20Susan,prescribing%20thousands%20of%20exorbitantly%20expensive\" target=\"_blank\">the medical professionals<\/a> who wrote the fake prescriptions and dishonestly handled other paperwork. The pharmacy that filled the fraudulent prescriptions, CFK, Inc., also previously pleaded guilty, the release said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Attorneys listed in court records for Morgan and Adams did not immediately respond to Military Times\u2019 request for comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two members of a scheme to bilk a military health care
