Betrayal on the Bayou

After a work injury, Derika Moses had her spine fused. Then her pain got worse. Years later, a letter arrived. The hardware in her back might be counterfeit. Not sterile. Not FDA approved. Made in a dingy machine shop in Southern California.  She wasn't the only one. Thousands of patients. Dozens of doctors, lawyers and healthcare workers. One of the largest healthcare frauds in U.S. history, run out of a Long Beach hospital by an elusive man... Peabody Award-winning journalist Ben Adair follows the money and finds the people who paid for it with their bodies. Listen to all of ⁠Doctor Billions⁠ now, ad-free, by subscribing to The Binge.

Chad Scott made an incredible number of cases by getting drug dealers to work for him as informants. His phone number was written on jailhouse walls because Chad was the guy who could get you out of a tough situation – if you give him what he wants. That if is what this whole story is about. We hear from Virgil Ard, a former drug dealer who navigated streets riddled with Chad’s snitches. Virgil would face a choice: a long prison sentence, or work for Chad.
