DOJ v. Richard Stefon Ramroop

Richard Stefon Ramroop and Manuel George Madrid allegedly defrauded the U.S. Department of War of millions of dollars, while using the illicit proceeds to curate and maintain a luxurious lifestyle, according to the DOJ. Ramroop allegedly utilized his position in the pharmacy at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base to defraud the U.S. government by purchasing thousands of medical devices using taxpayer funds, and thereafter, stealing and reselling those devices with Madrid for their own personal gain. From 2022 through 2025, bank accounts controlled by Ramroop and Madrid allegedly received over $11 million in fraud proceeds. The orders of these diverted medical devices cost the U.S. Department of War over $3 million. Ramroop and Madrid allegedly used the fraud proceeds to purchase luxury vehicles and real estate.
