Arizona man who flaunted $5.5 million home and Rolls-Royce online charged with health care fraud and money laundering: ‘This is a gift from me to me’

A local news report detailed a $5.5-million mansion and luxury car he bought with funds that the USAO says came from fraud.

Millions in one year

The USAO says the 11-count indictment against Williams alleges that he operated a behavioral treatment provider in Phoenix called “Thinking and Learning Together 2” (TLT2).

The indictment states that Williams defrauded the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS), the state’s Medicaid program, by allegedly failing to disclose in his initial application to AHCCCS that he owned TLT2, and his prior criminal conviction.

According to a FOX 10 Phoenix report, federal court records allege that Williams “falsely listed his son as the owner when registering with [AHCCCS], to avoid disclosing prior felony convictions.”

Williams also allegedly billed AHCCCS “for services that were never rendered,” the USAO release says.

Williams “specifically targeted AHCCCS members who were covered under the American Indian Health Care Program (AIHP) fee-for-service plan available to Native Americans,” the release alleges.

He allegedly billed AHCCCS for more than $33 million, and was paid approximately $19.7 million “based on these false and fraudulent claims,” from May 2022 to May 2023, the USAO says.

Each count of conviction for health care fraud and money laundering has a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison, the release says.

A mansion and a Rolls-Royce

FOX 10 Phoenix reported that the house in Peoria, Ariz., a suburb of Phoenix, is more than 12,000 square feet and sits on 2.5 acres. The six-bedroom, 12-bathroom home also features “a resort-style pool, outdoor entertainment space, tennis court and a 12-car garage,” the report says.

His Facebook profile, FOX 10 reported, shows “remnants of a lavish lifestyle,” including a video from 2022 in which he reportedly “showed off his Rolls-Royce Cullinan, estimated to cost $300,000.”

“Ho, ho, ho ... man, God’s been good to me,” Williams reportedly says in the video. “To all family, friends first off, man, Merry Christmas, happy holidays. This is a gift from me to me.”
