Subtitle: Submitted publicly by David Medeiros, Founder of ABI Resources, brain injury survivor, and whistleblower. This document is a federal-grade civil rights record and forensic timeline of documented fraud, ADA violations, whistleblower retaliation, public corruption, and suppression of federal complaints involving the Connecticut Medicaid ABI Waiver Program.

🔥 Executive Summary

In addition to systemic retaliation and civil rights violations, ABI Resources suffered a major financial crime in 2025 when $464,408.26 was stolen through unauthorized charges on its Charter Oak Federal Credit Union business account. This targeted fraud caused payroll disruption and severe harm to Medicaid-funded services. Despite formal filings with Google, FBI IC3, DOJ, and the U.S. Secret Service, the bank denied provisional credit and claimed the loss was not protected under federal law. The theft occurred in the context of years of retaliation against ABI Resources.

Between 2019 and 2025, ABI Resources and its founder David Medeiros documented a systemic pattern of Medicaid fraud, civil rights abuse, and institutional retaliation carried out by Connecticut state agencies, including DSS, DCP, CHRO, and OSC. This record details:

Misuse and concealment of federal Medicaid funds.
Suppression of FOIA requests and deletion of whistleblower complaints.
Denial of ADA accommodations and discrimination against a disabled whistleblower.
Erasure of CHRO complaints, unexplained termination of MuckRock FOIA access, and deletion of oversight documentation.
Retaliation through billing freezes, public humiliation, legal obstruction, and state-enabled fraud against ABI Resources.
Uninvestigated ties between public officials’ spouses and nonprofits receiving federal funds.

This is not a theory. It is an evidentiary timeline with dates, agencies, names, filings, and suppressed records. It is provided publicly so that the FBI, DOJ, CMS, HHS, media, and survivors across America can access, investigate, and act.
