Wray was working as a manager of a medical clinic in approximately 2013.  A co-conspirator Anthony Rose and Wray reach an agreement regarding patient referrals to the clinic. Wray agreed to pay Rose around $2,000 to $3,000 in illegal referral fees, according to allegations in the indictment, superseding information, and court filings.

Around 2016, Wray started recruiting and acquiring his own “lead sources.” These were individuals willing to sell confidential information of motor vehicle accident victims. He bribed at least five NYPD 911 operators to get the names and numbers of people involved in motor vehicle accidents from 2016 to around December 2017.

Wray then transfereed the information to an illegal call center, which he partly funded and operated by Rose. The call center contacted the unsuspecting accident victims, lied to them, and steered them to clinics and lawyers involved in the Wray and Rose’s illegal referral network. The clinics and lawyers paid them kickbacks in cash and checks.
