Susan Stange - Connecticut Medicaid Programs – Constitutional Violation Dossier Rights Deprived Against David Medeiros February 10, 2026

Susan Stange – Constitutional Violation Dossier Rights Deprived Against David Medeiros Medeiros Archive – February 10, 2026 Content Exact Constitutional Text Violated (verbatim from constitution.congress.gov and archives.gov/founding-docs) 14th Amendment, Section 1: nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Article VI, Clause 2 (Supremacy Clause): This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof, and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding. What Susan Stange Did to David Medeiros Personally Susan Stange (Susan.Stange@ct.gov), a staff member at the Connecticut Department of Social Services, repeatedly and deliberately deleted official emails sent by David Medeiros without reading them. On February 10, 2026, two separate copies of his formal demand letter (sent at 10:18 AM) were deleted by her at 6:29 PM without being opened. This is part of a documented pattern in the same email thread. The deleted emails concerned critical Medicaid issues: Sandata EVV authorization failures affecting client billing, mandatory duplicative credentialing to GT Independence, potential PHI misuse, and ADA/Olmstead accommodations for ABI Waiver beneficiaries. Exhaustive Constitutional Law Analysis The 14th Amendment Due Process Clause guarantees a meaningful opportunity to be heard. Susan Stange’s repeated deletion-without-reading of formal complaints denied David Medeiros any realistic opportunity for his communications to be considered. This is procedural due process denial. As a state employee handling public business, her actions also violate the Supremacy Clause by obstructing federal Medicaid oversight and ADA compliance reporting. The 1st Amendment Right to Petition protects the right to petition the government. Deleting unread formal complaints constitutes a direct interference with the right to petition. Whistleblower Protections Implicated David Medeiros’s emails were protected disclosures concerning Medicaid fraud and ADA violations. Deleting them without review frustrates federal whistleblower protections. ADA Accommodations Violated David Medeiros requires accommodations for his TBI (clear, reliable communication channels). Deleting his formal requests without review perpetuates the discrimination. Impact on ABI Resources and Vulnerable Populations These deletions prevent investigation into systemic issues harming ABI Waiver beneficiaries (billing disruptions, service continuity risks, potential PHI misuse). This is the torture and enslavement of the most vulnerable, trapping them in a system that profits from their suffering by blocking transparency and accountability. TBI Specific Harm to David Medeiros The repeated deletion of his communications forces him to re-document and re-send critical evidence, intensifying cognitive fatigue, memory lapses, headaches, and emotional strain, stealing precious recovery time. Summary I’ve spent 30 years watching real people, survivors of the worst kinds of trauma fight quietly just to make it through another day. Moms, dads, brothers, sisters, kids… people we love. They’ve been through a nightmare, and somehow they kept going, holding onto faith when no one was looking. But here’s what hurts my heart: too many of them didn’t just survive the trauma they had to keep surviving a system that was supposed to help them. A system that too often completely ignored them. Blocked their choices. Let money disappear into the wrong hands while families scraped by. I used to believe the system worked. I think most of us did. But it doesn’t. Not the way it should. And that’s not okay. So I’m speaking up not for attention, not for me, but for you. For your family. For every person you love who’s been made to feel powerless or forgotten. If you’re hurting in silence right now… if you’re exhausted from fighting alone… if you’ve ever felt defeated this is for you. You are not defenseless. You are not alone. I won’t stop talking about this. I won’t let the system keep ignoring your pain or controlling your life. Because you deserve better. Your loved ones deserve better. I am doing this because of the heart and values my family raised me with, I’m following the principles that shaped my family’s beliefs, taught and instilled in us from Jesus. If you know the roots of mass suffering and can stop it in its tracks, do it, and don’t stop! Turn your prayers into action. I will not watch people suffer in silence. David Medeiros When David Medeiros first saw how the ABI Waiver was torturing and enslaving the most broken among us, brain injured survivors, children, families already shattered by trauma, he couldn’t stay silent. He discovered who was doing it, what they were doing, when it started, where the money was going, how they were hiding it, and why it was happening. The system was not broken by accident. It was designed to profit from suffering. Elected officials and insiders were getting rich while the vulnerable were tortured and enslaved, locked into bad care, denied choice, forced into poverty, and left to suffer in silence. David became a whistleblower because he couldn’t watch it anymore. He reported everything first to the state. Then he went federal, all the way up. Susan Stange, a DSS staff member, repeatedly deleted his formal complaints without reading them. She hid her actions behind the system. They used David’s own brain injury against him, making it harder for him to keep up with paperwork, phone calls, and endless delays, to punish him, silence him, and violate his constitutional rights. David asked for basic accommodations to help him understand and remember. They did not do this. They hid their names and deleted his communications. What happened to David Medeiros is a horrific example of how the government abuses the population. The system tortured and enslaved vulnerable people for profit. David fought from the ground all the way up to the President of the United States of America. Because of his brain injury, David created systems to remember everything and saved 30 years of proof for himself that has become a historic monumental system needed for truth and justice. The biggest picture is this: a horrific, evil system abusing the most vulnerable for profit. If this makes you feel sick to your stomach, that’s because it should. David is still fighting so this never happens to you or someone you love. Author David Medeiros Publish Date 02/10/2026 02.10.2026 Formal Complaint of Employee Misconduct by Susan Stange Subject: Formal Complaint of Misconduct – Repeated Unauthorized Deletion of Official Public Records Emails by Susan Stange (C.G.S. §1-200 et seq. FOIA; Records Retention Requirements; Legal Hold Violations; Obstruction of Medicaid Oversight) Dear Commissioner Andrea Barton Reeves, I am filing this formal complaint against Susan Stange (Susan.Stange@ct.gov), DSS staff member, for a documented pattern of deliberately deleting official emails from ABI Resources LLC without reading them. This conduct violates Connecticut public records laws, records retention policies, legal hold obligations, and basic principles of transparency and accountability in the administration of the Medicaid ABI Waiver Program. Documented Pattern (with read-receipt evidence): Tuesday, February 10, 2026 (today): Two separate copies of my formal demand letter (sent 10:18 AM) were deleted by Susan Stange without being read (at 6:29 PM and 6:29 PM respectively). Multiple prior instances in this exact email thread (“No authorization” / formal demand) have shown the same immediate deletion-without-read behavior. This pattern has been repeated in previous communications involving ABI Resources (including matters previously reported to CHRO and federal agencies). These emails concern critical Medicaid provider issues: Sandata EVV authorization failures affecting client billing, mandatory duplicative credentialing to GT Independence, potential PHI misuse, and ADA/Olmstead accommodations for beneficiaries with acquired brain injuries. They are public records under C.G.S. §1-210 because they were sent and received in the conduct of official public business. Legal Violations: FOIA & Public Records Status – Emails sent/received by state employees in the performance of their duties are public records (C.G.S. §1-200(5) and §1-210(a)). Deliberate deletion without review prevents disclosure, inspection, or preservation. Records Retention Requirements – DSS (executive branch) is subject to strict retention schedules issued by the Office of the Public Records Administrator (see General Records Retention Schedules and agency-specific schedules). Emails may only be deleted after the required retention period and per an approved disposal request. Premature deletion is prohibited. Legal Hold Obligations – Deletion is expressly forbidden when records may be relevant to litigation, claims, audits, investigations, or FOIA requests (Public Records Administrator General Letter 2009-2; Electronic Mail Management guidelines). ABI Resources has ongoing federal complaints (CMS, HHS OCR, DOJ) regarding DSS non-compliance, making these communications subject to immediate legal hold. Deleting them constitutes potential spoliation of evidence. Transparency and Due Process – Repeated deletion-without-reading creates the strong appearance of intentional avoidance of accountability, especially when leadership (you and Director Christine Weston) have read the same messages. This undermines public trust in DSS oversight of Medicaid providers and waiver services. This behavior is particularly concerning because: It directly interferes with the resolution of systemic issues harming Medicaid beneficiaries (billing disruptions, service continuity risks). It follows a documented history of similar deletions in matters involving ABI Resources. It occurs after a formal demand letter citing federal statutes (42 U.S.C. §1396b(m), ADA, etc.) was sent and read by superiors. It raises questions of deliberate indifference and possible retaliation against a CARF-accredited provider raising legitimate compliance concerns. Demands: Immediate investigation into Susan Stange’s email deletion practices. Issuance of a litigation/legal hold preservation notice for all emails, notes, and records concerning ABI Resources, Sandata authorizations, GTI credentialing, and related matters (effective immediately). Retrieval and preservation of any deleted emails (server backups, etc.) related to ABI Resources. Appropriate disciplinary action if violations are confirmed. Mandatory training for DSS staff on public records retention, legal holds, and FOIA obligations. Written response to this complaint within 10 business days, including confirmation of preservation actions taken. From: ABI RESOURCES 860 942-0365 Sent: Tuesday, February 10, 2026 10:18 AM To: Weston, Christine M. ; Stange, Susan ; DSS, Commis ; ABI RESOURCES 860 942-0365 Subject: Re: No authorization Formal Demand for Explanation, Investigation, Corrective Action, Contractor Notifications, and Public Apology re: Mandatory Submission of ABI Resources Credentialing Information to GT Independence; PHI Misuse Allegations; ADA Violations in ABI Waiver Services; and Sandata Authorization Failures (42 U.S.C. § 1396b(m); 45 C.F.R. Part 164; 42 U.S.C. § 12132; Olmstead Mandate; Conn. Gen. Stat. § 17b-262 et seq.) Dear Commissioner Andrea Barton Reeves: I write on behalf of ABI Resources LLC, a CARF-accredited Medicaid provider of home- and community-based services under the Connecticut Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Waiver Program (1915(c) waiver, approved through 12/31/2026). ABI Resources actively serves Medicaid beneficiaries with acquired brain injuries, honoring person-centered planning and community integration per federal mandates. Despite repeated notifications and our timely efforts, we faced a re-enrollment deadline of 1/25/2026 with Gainwell Technologies. An extension to end-of-March 2026 was granted following our outreach (as confirmed by Director Christine Weston on or about February. We are cleared to continue services and billing without disruption, with WCAAA updated. However, systemic issues persist and require your immediate attention: ADA accommodation request on Key Legal Questions and Demands: Why must ABI Resources a CARF-accredited Medicaid ABI Waiver provider (verifying high standards in rehabilitation, quality, and participant outcomes) submit detailed credentialing information including ownership/control, site licenses/addresses, tax ID/SSN, insurance proofs, financial audits, programmatic staffing descriptions, ABI-specific training attestations, and ADA facility compliance—to GT Independence (GTI), the fiscal intermediary for self-directed services that is also a direct Medicaid business competitor of ABI Resources ? CARF accreditation already demonstrates rigorous compliance. Cite the exact DSS policy, regulation (e.g., Conn. Agencies Regs. § 17b-262-522 et seq.; Provider Bulletin 2024-84), or federal requirement (42 C.F.R. § 455.434 provider enrollment; 42 C.F.R. § 431.10 fiscal agent rules) mandating this duplicative step to GTI rather than a neutral DSS/internal or Gainwell-only process. How does this comply with 42 C.F.R. § 455.238 (and analogous procurement rules) on avoiding conflicts of interest, especially where GTI (a) maintains a public credentialed-provider directory (ctproviders.gtindependence.com) visible to competitors, (b) facilitates self-directed hiring/payroll (potentially recruiting from agency workforces), and (c) is perceived as enabling poaching? Provide the full credentialing application criteria and any conflict-of-interest safeguards in the DSS-GTI contract. Explain the necessity and legal basis for sharing any ABI Resources credentialing/operational data with GTI, a direct Medicaid ecosystem participant (fiscal intermediary handling PCA payroll, participant-directed services, ILST/RA training, and provider listings) that competes for workforce and participant choice in the ABI/PCA/MFP waivers. Detail how this avoids anti-competitive effects, unfair advantage to GTI, or poaching (e.g., GTI advertising services or contacting consumers/staff using data). If any Protected Health Information (PHI) of Medicaid consumers was provided by DSS/Gainwell/Sandata to GTI or used for advertising/poaching without valid authorization (45 C.F.R. § 164.508; § 164.502; Privacy Act of 1974), confirm this was a violation and identify all instances. What Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) govern data flows among DSS, Gainwell, GTI, Sandata, and WCAAA? Has DSS audited GTI for improper use of state-provided data? Why has DSS/Gainwell/Sandata failed to timely add/authorize ABI Resources' active clients in the Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) system (Sandata), despite our ongoing provision of authorized services? This violates 42 U.S.C. § 1396b(m) (timely/accurate authorization), Conn. Gen. Stat. § 17b-262-522 et seq., and creates billing/verification disruptions. Quantify the percentage of ABI Waiver participants without current authorizations (we documented ~90% in February 2026 outreach) and the root cause. How do these requirements, delays, and any data-sharing issues constitute—or fail to provide—reasonable accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) (42 U.S.C. § 12101 et seq., Title II/III; 28 C.F.R. § 35.130) and the Olmstead integration mandate (Olmstead v. L.C., 527 U.S. 581 (1999)) for individuals with acquired brain injuries? Delays in provider enrollment/credentialing, EVV authorizations, or service continuity discriminate against protected-class beneficiaries by limiting access to preferred, CARF-accredited, experienced providers like ABI Resources, forcing reliance on alternatives or institutionalization. As an accommodation for our clients (and to avoid disparate impact on disability-service providers), will DSS (a) deem CARF accreditation presumptively sufficient, (b) expedite/waive duplicative GTI steps where accreditation exists, and (c) prioritize ABI Resources' clients in Sandata authorizations? Immediate Actions Demanded: By close of business, provide written, cited responses to each numbered question above; copies of relevant DSS-GTI/Gainwell contracts, data-sharing protocols, BAAs, and any conflict waivers; and a full audit summary of any PHI/data misuse involving ABI Resources or its clients. Immediately notify and instruct all contractors (Gainwell Technologies, GT Independence, Sandata, WCAAA) in writing of proper protocols: no unauthorized PHI sharing, expedited processing for accredited providers, and zero tolerance for poaching/advertising using state data. Issue a public apology to ABI Resources (posted on the DSS website, CTDSSMAP.com, and emailed to ABI Waiver stakeholders/providers) for administrative burdens, any perceived improprieties, disruptions, and failure to proactively accommodate our CARF-accredited status and clients' needs. Include confirmation that we remain in good standing through March 2026 (and beyond). Confirm resolution of all Sandata authorizations for our clients. This matter has been formally reported to CMS, HHS OCR (HIPAA/ADA), and DOJ for investigation into potential fraud, waste, abuse, non-compliance, and civil rights violations. Failure to respond fully may constitute evidence of deliberate indifference. We remain committed to serving ABI Waiver participants with excellence ("Honor all, Be the best"). Contact me directly to resolve amicably. Thank you for your prompt leadership. Best regards, David Medeiros ABI Resources LLC Medicaid ABI Waiver Provider
