California Dentist Sentenced for Teamster Benefit Ripoff

David Lewis enriched himself in ways that neither the dentistry profession nor Teamster members recognized – or liked.  Several months ago, he learned the high price of his actions.  On May 5, Lewis, a Sacramento-based dentist, was sentencedin U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California to three years and 10 months in prison, and fined $75,000, for skimming at least $1 million from a union-sponsored health plan covering employees of United Parcel Service.  He had pleaded guilty in January after being indicted on 18 counts in February 2014.
