Sunny Hostin Accidently Exposed Her Husband's Alleged Insurance Scam, Now He's a Defendant in a RICO Case

Could Sunny Hostin be considered the most uninformed individual on Earth? It’s a valid question given her statements on “The View” throughout the years. Recently, she equated January 6th to the Holocaust and chattel slavery, demonstrating just how absurd her commentary can get.



In December, Hostin made potentially defamatory comments about Matt Gaetz, which resulted in her producers requiring her to make an on-air correction. If you haven’t watched that particular clip yet, it’s pure entertainment. While Hostin’s remarks often provide unintentional humor, they can also take a darker turn. Following the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, she controversially defended the act by suggesting that “this country was built on violence” and justifying those on the left who were celebrating the tragedy.

Hostin has a reputation for speaking impulsively and making inappropriate remarks. However, this time, the issue hits much closer to home. According to The Daily Mail, Hostin’s spouse, Dr. Emmanuel Hostin, has been implicated as a defendant in a significant RICO case involving insurance fraud.

Orthopedic surgeon Dr. Emmanuel ‘Manny’ Hostin is among nearly 200 defendants named in one of the largest RICO cases ever filed in New York.

He and many of the others are accused or getting kickbacks by performing surgery and fraudulently billing a company that insures taxi companies and Uber and Lyft drivers.

‘Hostin knowingly provided fraudulent medical and other healthcare services including arthroscopic surgeries,’ the lawsuit, filed on December 17, claims.

The insurance firm American Transit was then billed ‘in exchange for kickbacks and/or other compensation which were disguised as dividends or other cash distributions.’

What’s so eyebrow-raising about this is that Sunny Hostin appeared to reveal part of her husband’s alleged scam live on-air recently while trying to obfuscate from the aforementioned murder of Thompson. 

SUNNY HOSTIN: I mean, I agree with mostly everything that’s been said. I mean, we know that, you know, only about 31 percent of Americans trust our healthcare system. We have a terrible healthcare system. And, you know, doctors suffer because of big corporations, as well. Doctors that want to do good like my husband, you know, operates on someone even though they don’t have insurance and then has to sue health insurance companies to get paid for the work that he’s been trained his whole life to do.

At the time, Nicholas Fondacaro of Newsbuster pointed out the oddly worded statement, wondering exactly what she meant. How could a doctor sue (or bill) a health insurance company after performing surgery on someone without insurance?

Hostin also made curious comments about her husband’s interactions with insurance companies. She said her husband, who’s a surgeon, that he’s been trained his whole life to do.”

While I don’t doubt that there’s more evidence of her husband’s alleged misconduct than what Hostin said on ‘The View,’ no one can deny the rich irony here. She goes on television and literally describes him committing insurance fraud and then he gets rolled up in a massive insurance fraud lawsuit. You can’t make this stuff up.

We’ll see where this goes, and obviously, he has not been found liable for anything yet. Big picture, though, it certainly puts a damper on Hostin’s constant claiming of the moral high ground in any discussion. It also leaves nothing to chance in pondering just how incredibly dull-witted she is. I shouldn’t have to say this, but it’s probably not a good idea to go on live television and expose your husband’s alleged fraud in a vain attempt to virtue-signal. Perhaps Hostin will be reading another “legal note” on “The View” very soon.
