RE: Felony Fraud
Dear Mr. Racine:
There is evidence that I committed a felony against the Government of the United States on May 1, 2015. There is evidence that I am engaged in a long-term scheme to defraud the federal government of up to about $500,000 in public monies. There is evidence that I am using psychiatric services provided by the District of Columbia Government to fabricate evidence to support a fraudulent Social Security Disability claim.
I receive monthly Social Security Disability Benefits by reason of severe mental illness, the most recent payment being May 1, 2015. I receive out-patient psychiatric services provided by St. Elizabeths Hospital (Mohammed Shreiba, M.D. under the supervision of Earl Baughman, M.D.) and the D.C. Department of Behavioral Health (Sara F. Carroll, nurse practitioner, McClendon Center, DC CSA).
I was administered psychological testing by The George Washington University Medical Center Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science in 1994 and in 1996. The testing failed to disclose that I suffer from any diagnosable mental illness. I achieved a perfect score on the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (6 errors) in 1996, which virtually rules out schizophrenia (see attached test results).
In February 1999 St. Elizabeths Hospital (Albert H. Taub, M.D.) fabricated the diagnosis Paranoid Schizophrenia (see attached letter dated February 22, 1999 from Albert H. Taub to the D.C. Medical Board). The actions of St. Elizabeths Hospital ultimately defrauded the U.S. Social Security Administration, the federal Medicare system, and the D.C. Medicaid Program.
In June 1999, only six months later, Dr. Taub assigned the diagnosis Delusional (Paranoid) Disorder in my periodic treatment plan – circumstantial evidence that the earlier diagnosis Paranoid Schizophrenia was for the consumption of the Medical Board only, offered in an attempt to mischaracterize my mental state for the purpose of deception.
There is a possibility that Dr. Taub had communications with my former employer (the D.C. law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld) in the period after November 12, 1998 (see attached letter dated November 12, 1998 from Gary Freedman to Dennis M. Race).
My current diagnosis is Paranoid (Delusional) Disorder, a psychotic disorder. There is substantial evidence that the only reason I am diagnosed with severe mental illness is that I believe that I am the victim of a criminal conspiracy. I do not show any of the cognitive deficits associated with psychotic mental illness.
I respectfully request that the Office of Attorney General look into this matter.
Sincerely,
Gary Freedman

Dear Mr. Race:
I am a former employee of the law firm of Akin, Gump, Strauss, Hauer & Feld, where I was employed as a legal assistant from June 1988 until October 29, 1991.
You will recall that my employment was terminated because of the firm's concerns about my mental health and stability, concerns that arose after I lodged a harassment complaint against several coworkers. As you know, my personnel records reflect an exemplary job performance and the absence of any disciplinary action or reprimands.
My appeal of a long-standing unlawful job termination complaint that I had filed against the firm in early 1992 was dismissed by the District of Columbia Court of Appeals in September 1998, thereby foreclosing the possibility of an order reinstating my employment with back-pay.
I would like to take this opportunity to request that the firm consider the matter of my employment as a new hire (without back-pay), at a competitive salary commensurate with my background and experience. I believe I have still much to offer the firm.
I enclose a signed release of information form that will permit you to review with my treating psychiatrist, Albert H. Taub, M.D., any concerns you may have about my current mental status and suitability for employment. Dr. Taub is employed by the District of Columbia Department of Mental Health Services. From a legal standpoint, I believe that your consultation with Dr. Taub would relieve Akin Gump of tort liability in connection with a decision by the firm to extend an offer of employment to an individual previously determined to be not suitable for employment by reason of mental instability. Dr. Taub can be reached at telephone no. 282-2229.
I thank you in advance for considering this matter. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Gary Freedman
